...didn't realize they took place only six days apart. Live Earth did seem a bit rushed and disorganized in some ways, as opposed to Live 8 or Live Aid, the obvious comparison(s).
It's hard to compare Live Earth to Diana's concert for anyone outside the UK I think, as that was only in London.
In any case I did look up the set lists...
LIVE EARTH LONDON

Black Eyed Peas
John Legend
