WHEN DID THE FOO FIGHTERS PLAYED?


I think I would've hearded...

It went form U2 to Morgan Freeman then Neil Young...



well, for all of the people complaining... wait until tomorrow... if the play One again, THEN complain... now, just support the cause, like I DO

After Neil, I believe... they played 'Born on the Bayou'.

 

[U2Man]

And considering the issues of divisiveness, poverty (give me nothing, now that's all i've got), Superdome (ask me to enter, then you make me crawl), unity (carry each other), race (we're one, but not the same)... I'd say 'One' is the most relevant song that could have been played. And by extension, this still ties in to the make poverty history effort of the 'One' campaign.

Yes, but as Chizip hinted this is actually a matter of interpretation. A lot of the things you mentioned here, could actually be considered describing a relationship between two persons and not some kind of universal love. But....

Exactly, if they play Yahweh tomorrow night then people will be complaing as well.

I am the first one to complain about boring static setlists, but for goodness sakes this is a universal charity event. Forgive U2 for being so "selfish" to play their most familar song that fits.

Plus as I said earlier, they wanted Mary J to sing with them, I assume, maybe she asked them to play the song.

That per4mance of Neil Young's was amazing.... and I don't even know his music. Rarely has a song touched me so at 1st listen.

 

[Lila64]

It's Rod! Now if my feed would stop breaking up!

so a song that youe never heard before was able to touch you?

 

[u2wedge]

They're definitely all in Toronto for the most part...

Correct, but in a Shelter from the Storm context, this interpretation is the more vaild one.

WATCH OUT PEOPLE... IS KANYE


*runs for cover*

 

[Lila64]

Kanye

 

[u2wedge]

oh, so now Kanye's going to help raise money instead of throwing gas on the fire.

I heard he got boo'ed pretty bad at the NFL game the other night.

 

[enajh2]

What's the point of him censoring himself?

 

[u2wedge]

That Kanye rap was about as disjointed as his comments from a few nights ago.

 

[trevster2k]

It's Chris Gaines' alter ego.

 

[u2wedge]

If Bob Dylan plays "Shelter" tonight, I will be one happy camper.

 

[U2DMfan]

CCR

 

[enajh2]

PLEASE don't end with a country no.

Yee-haa!

 

[Bono's shades]

I thought Kanye was great! I love how he did some new lyrics for Jesus Walks.

Is it just me or was there no sound from his mike at the very beginning? It seemed like he came in on the middle of a line, but I'm not quite familiar enough with the song to tell.

 

[Lila64]

is everyone's feed coming thru well? I'm seeing the picture upside down and in green I had to run to my tv to see who was playing. And it breaks up alot (the CBS link u2dork had posted earlier)

 

[Lila64]

is that the Late Show (Letterman) band I see?

 

[pepokiss]

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

 

[Zoomerang96]

That Kanye rap was about as disjointed as his comments from a few nights ago.

yes, of course. afterall, you obviously don't have any shit against him, so clearly you're in a perfect position to unbiasedly tell everyone how good his performance really was.

 

[The Disciple]

so a song that youe never heard before was able to touch you?

Jackass....

 

[U2dork]

My stream ended on the CBS site and wouldn't restart so I went to the ABC link instead.

 

[enajh2]

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

If he'd only done the cool thing he did with his shades falling from his brow like he did in As Good As It Gets then that would have made my night!

 

[BonoIsMyMuse]

damn, I tuned in too late to see them. Instead, I muted Rod Stewart (which is always a pleasure) and called and made a donation.

Is there a forum somewhere where we can post other places to send donations? A colleague in my department passed on some information about two shelters that are taking personal care products, old magazines, and other things a lot of us can easily donate. I can post them if people are interested, or you can PM me.

 

[Lila64]

is it over? If so, that was incredibly short and...um... what's the word....

 

[u2wedge]

yes, of course. afterall, you obviously don't have any shit against him, so clearly you're in a perfect position to unbiasedly tell everyone how good his performance really was.

you're not healthy.

and you certainly haven't a clue.

You're incoherent, too.

And Kanye's the unhealthy one spouting all of that crap from the other night. And that crap, ironically, is the 'shit' I have against him.

Be a part of the solution, not part of the problem.

 

[pepokiss]

wait.. WHO was before Ellen DeGeneres?
