I CAN'T FREAKING WAIT!!!
Its here! Bob Geldof's second big concert! Live Aid was unbelievable and I hope this will be too. I so have to get to cable TV to watch it all. Duran Duran, U2, Coldplay, Green Day, Linkin Park I sooo wanna see.
-
I concur. Live 8 is a great idea. A much better idea than Drace could come up with.
-
Holy crap. Tell me what time zone you're in and what time it comes on for you as well as the channel. My cable guide is messed up. I MUST SEE THIS. U2 OWNS, as does LP and duran duran.
-
I like listening to music while I'm driving, and sometimes when I'm working with rm2k3, but I couldn't really just watch it. :(

I get highlights tonight cos I didn't have Fox8. Plus ti started 11pm on Saturday. I was told it started 1am on sunday.
-
Blame our paper. It said it was on Sunday. And it is. in 10 minutes, Channel 9 is showing highlights.
Plus you are all fools. Aren't you aware that every country (but New Zealand) are behind Australia in the time zone wars?
Also, Drace: I chose you, because you seriously couldn't do better than Bob Geldof.
-
I watches most of it, like, as soon as i got home till 3AM in the morning, all of the london one and half of philly one, it rocked, i gotta see if anyone recorded it to see the first bit of the london one that i missed, only like 1song tho

Sir Bob Geldof is the leader singer of a group called The Boomtown Rats late 70s-early 80s. Geldof, after seeing footage of Africa's poverty, formed a song called 'Do They know its Christmas?' with various large British bands. The song sold heaps and the money went to Africa, not the singers. America did a similar thing with money going to Africa. Still though, Geldof wanted more. On July 13th 1985 the biggest muscial performance the world had seen occurred: Live Aid. Geldof organised two concerts in London and Philidephia with the biggest groups around the world. (in other countries other artists organised other concerts not as large as London or Philidelphia). No money went to the bands. 80 million dollars went to Africa for medicine, supplies etc. Afterwards he was knighted, and he fought governments to help Africa. 20 years l8, Geldof and Bono (U2) organised 10 concerts: London, Philidephia, Rome, Paris, Tokyo, Berlin, Barrie, Johannesburg and the Eden Project. These concerts, Live 8, were to tell the G8, the 8 men who control the trade of the world, to cancel Africa's debt and let Trade in Africa be the same as us.
