Members MrSage Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 My Tivo is set...8 hours is a wicked long time. I'm sure I won't watch the whole thing.Each band only plays for like 15 minutes, though...and it's a revolving stage, apparently, so if they're on too long...well...they get revolved off.What do you think Floyd will play?

Members phoenix_76 Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 Floyd is all I want to see too. Can Tivo edit out crap like U2, Coldplay, Dido etc.? If yes, I need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MrSage Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 Originally posted by Lanefair What's this concert in aid of again? Hehe... No one cares this time around. They haven't done a very good job of promoting the "aid" part of it. Something about global poverty? Something about the G8 nations? (hence the "8") I saw a CNN interview with Joss Stone, and she appeared to have no idea what it was about. The interviewer was asking her why she thought it was important, and she could only say stuff like, "Well, all it takes is for these leaders to get together and agree...that's no so hard, is it?" Agree on what? You're freaking performing in the show! At least have some idea what you're performing for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Lanefair Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 It would be funny if they got the venues mixed up, and all the people in Hyde Park protested against the bands, and all the people in Edinburgh cheered the world leaders.

A lot of the old farts took advantage of the original Band Aid in that way, so no reason why they won't this time.More's the pity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Edward Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 Originally posted by TigerInATrance Positive thinking will make it happen...please tell your friends...BTW... Why does London get the only decent lineup? There's only about three acts I'd be interested in - most of them are crap. The worst act on the bill is, I believe, the Scissor Sisters - possibly the most overrated flash in the pan EVER. SERIOUS ENC Syndrome. but, hey.... they need to be commercial successes. Geldoff could have stuff the bill with all kinds of cool credible people, but then how would the message reach the masses. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members chrisjnyc Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 Originally posted by TigerInATrance Why does London get the only decent lineup? The question should be... why does Phili get such a crappy lineup... There are millions of bands out there, why not pick a few better ones for the US?

Members chrisjnyc Posted July 1, 2005 Members Share Posted July 1, 2005 Also, the concert is to get the worlds leaders to erase the debt for a lot of 3rd world countries.In the US check out:One.org everone else:make poverty history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
