Live8 Setlist Party Pt 3

[bcrt2000]

This kind of feels like Woodstock 2 to me...

Good idea on paper, over-hyped, over-commercialized, and overall a poor representation of the original.

Exactly what it is to the orignial Live Aid.

I wonder how it actually is, like not on TV, why are they even bother broadcasting it? Oh right...ad space...

maybe its just the MTV broadcast? CTV has done a great job, starting at 7am in the morning, and they keep cutting out of the canadian concert and showing other great performances-- and after the concert ends they'll show the best performances around the world that weren't broadcast

I honestly think that this will be much more effective in achieving it's goals & objectives. Musically it's debatable - I think there are more highlights (by virtue of the fact there are more acts) but with that you also get the bad.

This is very fun & it's not cool to compare while we are still in action!

I disagree cmb737, you folks in the US are getting screwed on television coverage but the AOL feeds are incredible. There have been many fantastic performances so far today and we are only halfway through the day. This is also a different type of concert, this isn't a charity event, this is a call to action. But you are correct in the pathetic broadcasting being provided to the US.

Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, and Will Champion are four of my favorite people in the world, I don't care what anyone says.

Yea...it's the MTV Broadcast...that's what make this feel like Woodstock 99ish.

Lucky you for having a great music show...if you can call it that....as to everyone else who has a great music place. (like MuchMusic).

 

[cerveza]

I agree, CTV is doing a great job, showing quite a lot of the non-Canadian performances (not as much as I'd like, but obviously a hell of a lot more than MTV).

And they're showing Nelson Mandela speaking now, which, I'm sure, MTV isn't.

I must say Bittersweet Symphony sounds a lot better when you can watch Richard Ashcroft singing it.

Okay, okay, I'll stop!

Cool - Po can buy a new handbag

They are all very cool. I used to think Chris was extremely cool - but now he is starting to become slightly irritating - his name dropping is beggining to bother me.

Will & Johnny

Guy is just plain hot. (apparently)

 

[mobonofo]

MTV's John Norris is very creepy!

No, but they actually played a Coldplay song.

He's been at MTV forever. He must have something on one of the higher ups there
