They looked pretty good on the vid. :)
BTW... it doesn't work with Firefox. You'll have to use IE.

Uh didn't they show it live already? I chose to skip it even then.
What these whiners miss is that by supporting developing countries to higher standards of living and feeding the masses, reducing newborn deaths, you will make the already impossible situation of overpopulation and pollution much much worse.
So by acting in naive good intentions they work against the human kind and the ecosystem in general.

how are concerts suppose to help the debt of poor nations??
sounds like a free Cher concert to elect the latest dumbacrat... it don't work
maybe they need the music to calm down the protestors
-
That crap really screwed up my XM radio while I was traveling..

They weren't supposed to .. they were supposed to raise awareness .... Debt has little to do with it.....
How nice of the rich countries to forgive the debt of starveing nations; like they will ever have a chance to repay things while large portions of thier population are starveing?
these people are starveing ..... and we throw out tons of food everyday......there's no money in giveing food away.
money is all glitz and glitter when your starveing, you really missed the point.
Enjoying your lunch? You going to finish tho's fries?
-
mandew... would you be happier if I gave my fries to an african warlord?
lazs
-
no,
just pointing out some things - if you think it's about debt, you missed the point.
However .. we have pleanty of food, they don't.
there's no $ in feeding Africa ..... so no wonder.
-
So just who is it that you think needs to be made aware that sub saharan africa can be a bad place to live? Is their anyone left do you think?
or is it just a way for washed up rock stars to get in the limelight a little bit one more time?

Africa or themselves?
-
I'm countinally surprised with how little some folks know. And I know enough to know I don't know crap.
I was arugeing that it wasn't about debt....
Read above if you want my thoughts on this circus.
I thought "McCartney goes for the baseline and scores" was funny :D
But aside form Live8.... Africa is a problem...
How many millions died in the Congo in the last 5 years?
it's not all about food .. but it's not about Debt.... Debt is joke of a problem next to the others IMHO.
-
"raising awareness" of the burnouts of the world does zero in fixing Africa's problem. The world "civilized" comes to mind....
someone needs to pass out a combo sterilization/aids shot if they want to help them in the short haul .. not waste time and money on music for those that really do zero to fix the problem..
-
LMAO at the people in this thread "puffing chests" about an issue they ALL can give two chits about.
THAT is what this thread is all about.

Hmmm think its a joke much asking the public to pay lots for expensive tickets so see some of the richest ****ers dance about on stage,lets see them putting hands deep in their pockets......:mad:
-
Nice hijack. :aok
-
you know, if everyone involved, an all the people watching it, gave the money they spent putting it on (gas, electricity, hotel rooms, food, yada yada) to one of those charity things, a hell of a lot more good would have been done.
-
And a buttload would end up in some Swiss bank accounts.Untill we can verify where every dollar goes I say the hell with them.Whats the point in making some warlord rich and thousands of tribsmen starve?

lol waaaaa~!~~~
damn lazs.. whys it got to be so negative with you man.. floyd alone made it worth it.. first time they'd been back together in decades.. at least the 4 original members.. not like they'd really been seeking the limelite. and I don't really know what planet you're from but i wouldn't call any of the members of floyd washed up bums/bozos.. lol as old as they are, i'd bet they could sell out any arena in america/uk/germany/or many others at any time.. just a shame man you gotta be so negative to such good music.. their stuff is classic and will outlive all of us..

I have a legit complaint... I was on the road and the music from that concert was horrible and it was on my XM station. I pay for satalite radio.
I will complain to them that it was crap. You guys have to be listening while loaded or something to have thought any of that stuff was good. Mostly... it was talking followed by some old guys with burned out voices singing or just going on and on with "improv" stuff like old sixties concerts where they would make something like light my fire or stairway last about 30 minutes and everyone was too timid to boo em off the stage.
lazs
-
Or perhaps some don't live in the wild west mentality and actually enjoy hearing good music... lol There are many different sounds that bring happiness other than a 6-gun.. lol
If you pay for the service, don't they provide more than one channel?? Or was it on all the sat-radio channels?
-
there were plenty... I just was annoyed at that one being on. My girlfriend likes that station and the crappy show with all those burnouts lessened my choices... since I pay for it I feel I have a right to complain.
If what they were playing "brought happiness" to you then it was from what you were putting into it... you were on some nostalgia trip that allowed you to discount how awful it was.

lol lazs.. you didnt think floyd's performance was good ?? Have you heard/seen it yet??
What is your idea of good music? Or is there a such thing??
edit.. I never dogged you about complaining.. just my idea of how it sounded.. lol
edit edit.. YOur probably right though, i doubt I would agree with all the music.. but still.. I wouldn't damn it all .. 8)

Heck... I like outlaw country and rockabilly and some old rock and roll and classical and one out of 20 or 100 new attempts at rock and roll... maybe the same 1 out 100 new country. I like things like Johny cash and hank williams and george jones... for old country but too many to list. Do a top 100 country hits of all time show and I will probly agree with about 80% of em.
I didn't like the british groups like floyd or most of led zep but liked winwood and the stones. I liked elvis. I liked orbison and blondie and some of the eurithmics and jerry lee and bach and wagner.
I rarely like "live" versions of anything unless it is claisical. I seen probly every 60's group back in the day and most were crap live... Janis joplin was surprisingly good live at one concert but too loaded at another.
pink floyd was allways boring to me unless I was on acid.. I don't do acid anymore tho.

Well.. lol Guess I feel bout the same and like the same music you've listed.. 8)
Can't argue with your likes and dislikes of newer music.. Some is good, most is chit.. But zepplin and floyd have got to be some of my favorites as far as older music goes.. Like anything else i suppose its a question of taste.. I feel very confident though that their music will outlive us all.. Always enjoyed them, always will.. 8)

I used to say that crap... even after playing for years.. then it hit me one day. Listen to the solo and outro solo on "Comfortably Numb" and you can get it.

sunking et all... I am not a musician. I have no desire to be and I have no doubt that pink floyd is a very talented group so far as technical skill is concerned.
Not being a muscican... I am not so much concerned with technical skill as.... what the music does to me. and..
Unless I am on acid... pink floyd bores me. The emotion in question in their case is.... boredom...

David Gilmour is a great Lead Guitarist. That's all that hits me. Personally, The Wall is my LEAST fav. album they have ever done.

Gilmour is what it is about, its up to him whether they ever tour again, man I hope so.
Floyd is was and always will be amazing. and absolute orgy of sound that only they can bring together.
