Anyone watching or have friends/family who are there? Been pretty good so far, can't wait for the Pink Floyd reunion...

Highlight so far: Bill gates! :eek:
 
yeah i'm half watching it....been alright

stereophonics are on at the minute
 
Yeah, I'm not really in support of Live 8 that much because I don't really agree with the solution that they're proposing, but it'll happen regardless, so I may as well watch it :)

Not bad so far, I enjoyed Sir Elton John and Pete Doherty - Children of the Revolution quite a bit!
 
I slept in. :( Missed Paul McCartney dueting with Bono, U2, Bill Gates, Elton John. (Correct me if I'm wrong, I think thats who I've missed)

Going to watch the repeat at 7pm. :D
 
Green Day playing at Berlin Live 8 right now!
 
my dad was talking to the killers in london 6 months ago for an hour in a hotel.

he told me on the phone that he was talking to them in a chip shop a few nights ago in Cardiff...

what are the chances of that?? LOL
 
I think the crowds a bit dead

But i really enjoyed U2, coldplay, stereophonics, REM, and can't wait for Keane, Snow Patrol, The Killers and Razorlight. This seriously owns, live 8 is a damn good idea. Oh and Ricky Gervais is cracking me up as usual.

'Been on the phone to bush and Blair and they've quadrupled aid, go home everyone and take litter with you!'
 
I didn't think Gervais was funny at all. He was doing a bit of a "drunk uncle at Christmas" thing, very sad.
 
Well Muse rocked Paris, shame they got moved out of London, they would have brought the place to life
 
Pink Floyd are going to be awesome later. Wish You Were Here, Breathe, Comfortably Numb and some other TBC song, I can't wait. ;D

Stop teasing us ;(
 
I seen only U2 in London (Bono Rocks !) but I cant seen Pink Floyd :(
 
Wow green day were amazing in Berlin, The killers, snow patrol and razorlight soon. I left the room for Ms Dynamite and Black eyed peas. Oh and Bob Geldoff himself was really good. Can't wait for it to get dark.
 
:(
i wanna see Pink Floyd but i don't think we will get to for the Canadian show.
 
Why the hell is Snoop Dogg on stage?

Oh man this sucks...

When exactly do Pink Floyd come on?

7:30-ish towards 8-ish, I think. I'm guessing anyway. To be safe, watch it from now, although you have to watch alot of shit first, which is why I'm recording from this point on. ;D

Almost 8 and they're still not on yet. The Killers are on after Snow Patrol. Floyd must be near the very end with Paul McCartney.
 
WOOHOO!! Deep Purple Rocks LIVE!!!!

There the Best Rock band I've heard LIVE since ACDC came to Canada in 2003.

Yeah, they are on like, second or thrid from last. I have no idea when the show ends, so I was taking a guess at 8-ish.

We have a timetable printed off downstairs, but thats all over the place. If the band that are playing at the moment are The Killers, as you say, then this timetable is f.ucked. It says they were on about 4-ish, yet they are on stage now? I'd like to know a confirmed time for Pink Floyd so I can go and watch rather then keep running up and downstairs to see if they are on. >:{ Ah well, its recording.

EDIT: And I must say, the crowd are the most boring crowd I have seen at a festival or on TV.
 
i thought keane were good, the last song in particurlar, 'bedshaped', looking forward to snow patrol too, some bands aren't really me cup of tea, pete doherty, could anyone actually hear him?:hmph:

the crowd seem a bit flat too but alot of the songs are just meh, not exactly up-tempo or anything.
oh well, btw 1.5 million at the philidelphia concert....:eek:

I hear they are getting pushed back, too. Although I heard 10-ish. Either way, I best change the tapes later.

It will have finished by then i reckon, or be near to finishing if it overuns which is likely. They'll be on soon im pretty sure.
 
Did you all see Velvet Revolver? They just blew the stage away. I don't have their album but I'm a fan of the Stone Temple Pilots & Guns N' Roses.

Weiland's interview at the end was pretty funny with the 500BC thing, although I hate him because he's a wife beater.
 
He may be a nonce (:p), but Pete Townsend is good on the guitar!
 
****, I missed pink floyd but the who was pretty good.
 
Wha? here the who played according to the guy who talked, and they just changed to keith urban in philadelphia. :O
 
What the hell was with the opening camera? I want to see Floyd's whole set, that includes them walking on stage. All I got to bloody see was the camera EVER SO SLOWLY move over the crowd and get to stage just as Breathe came on. Man, I was actually shouting at the TV ''GET TO THE ****ING STAGE YOU ****ING IDIOT'' That was silly, but who cares, Floyd is on, and they are kicking the ass. ;D ;D ;D
 
Pink Floyd is rocking my world. that was sweetness.

the Cure, in paris. oh yes.
