Ooooh. It doesn't half ache standing for 12 hours at my age.
I really enjoyed my time at Live 8. I was, I imagine, right in their target demographic so I guess I would. There was a lot of people I'm a fan of on the bill so of course they impressed, plus I was smart enough to realise before I got there that I was unlikely to see the stage so wasn't disappointed with my position in the park. The packed lunch was a good idea, too. I've just remember I was really proud that we stayed right to the end
Reading through comments here and talking to my parents I get the impression we had a better experience of Live 8 than the BBCvictims viewers. For a start we only suffered a short bout of Fern Cotton. We saw a lot of supplementary video and highlights from other concerts that I think home viewers missed (The crowd *rocked* to Bon Jovi from Philadelphia) *and* we couldn't see Jonathan Ross' suit.
( The highlights )
( The lowlights )
I know that most people would say Pink Floyd was the defining moment of the concert but I'm sad to say that George Michael walking on was mine. What can I say? I'm unashamedly a fan.
Oh, and looking at the other shows Germany and J'Burg looked like there were a HOOT.
( I only took a few photographs. )
