Well that was quite the show wasn't it? Live 8 will go down as the concert of all time methinks. There were too many highlights to list in this post. But I'll try to share what were the defining moments for me:
- The Pink Floyd reunion. That they could put their differences aside for this speaks volumes.
- That the Spice Girls couldn't put their differences aside also speaks volumes.
- The Neil Young closing of the Canadian concert was classy.
- The Canadian crowd booing the introduction of Celine Dion live in Las Vegas was.... ummm.... interesting. Why would they boo you Celine, why?
- The Who. Now they can say they've gotten back together how many times?

hi! From what I heard, Bob Geldof didn't want the Spice Girls to play. I think they would have actually, but he said they weren't going to bring people in and this was about raising awareness. So he only wanted acts people wanted to see.
Quotes from major UK networks indicate they were welcome (outwardly). Anyway - the point is moot now.
Robbie Williams, of all people, was amazing.
The Floyd rocked, though.
Cheers
