So I'm blogging Live 8...

Jul 02, 2005 12:46

...might as well admit it. ;) In the future, I'll know exactly where I was and what I was doing, unlike with Live Aid. Heh. Don't worry, friends list; I'll try to keep updating this post for the rest of the day, rather than making a million posts.

Updates from the whole day are under the cut. )

music, live 8

ARGH! I knew I'd be missing something awesome from Moscow! AOL's site doesn't have a Moscow feed. Bastards!

Well, there will probably be a DVD... I've already missed U2 live because I couldn't make myself wake up early enough. :\

At least I'm seeing UB40 and I got to hear Bob Geldof... that's good. :)

Come to think of it, the show may be over in Moscow. How far ahead of EST are they? It's probably about eight or nine hours, right?

Oh, and Pink Floyd -- all of them except Syd -- are performing in London. They haven't gone on yet; I don't know the order of the performances.

I think Moscow must have ended a good while ago, because there was no link to it when I first got to the AOLmusic site (and that was about two hours ago). I'm sorry... I wish I could've seen PSB too! I didn't even know they were playing anywhere today!

I didn't know you hated Jimmy Fallon. Why's that? (Not that I blame you... even when I liked him, I still thought he was kind of annoying because he really seems smug.)

Well, they're linked to Rome, where most of the acts so far have been Italian (or at least, it sounded like Italian)... bastards!

I thought it must have been something like that. Oh yeah, I saw the skit you're talking about. It wasn't really funny *or* accurate. He's usually a good impressionist, but that skit was just kind of stupid.
