from The Onion's review of the Live Aid DVD ... i've posted only the good part:


On the legitimately historic side, the Live Aid set offers Queen at the top of its arena-rock game—"Radio Ga Ga" and all—and a career-defining U2 performance, with a fully mulleted Bono telling the cameramen where to aim as he jumps into the pit. On a day where the political side of the occasion was largely ignored, U2 had one of the few socially relevant sets, culminating in Bono captivating a global audience during a 12-minute, dazzlingly digressive version of "Bad." By nightfall, millions of rock fans had a new hero.
 
Wow! Even the writers at the Onion, whose job it is to be snarky, can't snark about U2's Live Aid performance. :up:
