did anyone on here attempt or succeed in getting tickets?
The music dosent really appeal to me, and in my opinion theres no way it will be half as good as live aid (not that i experienced it, but ive seen it on tv since) but i will most probably watch it on the box, and definatley send my contribution.
looking forward to it people?

I remember Live Aid and will not be getting involved this time .... partly because I don't think it will match the same and partly through my own political views *whilst I applaud Bob for his efforts and passion I don't think wiping out debt will benefit those truely suffering, this just takes the pressure of those already in the money!*

the concert and the live 8 evernt has never been about raising money.. it has been about cancelling the debt of nations that are aready on their knees....
for example.... if you know for every pound your country made.... 40p of that is going straight back to a bank, instead of going to educate for example,you may understand better what the objective it.... to put pressure on the wealthiest countries to truely open up markets,
so much for free trade when for example subsides go to farmers in europe, to keep prices artifically low, prootectionism...
i am not going to the concert, i would love to.... but i will be at the demo in edinburgh on tuesday... and i wish that anyone who could do would do so...

I'll be at Peter Gabriel's at the Eden Project.
A bit controversial, I know, what with it being an all black line-up....
