LIVE8 DVD

I picked this up mainly because of the "horrible" coverage that MTV, Vh1 did for it. Plus i tried watching it on AOL and that was real annoying. So I picked this up and was actually really happy with it. Mainly the best performances came from the Artists that were there the first time. I thought some of acts should have edited to one song, like the Kaiser Chiefs, 3 song on this DVD was a little too much, especially considering other bands like AHA got cut off this DVD.

The Excuse i first heard as to why A-HA got cut off was that 'they werent considered relevant to the DVD" which is really a lame excuse. I mean if KEANE and COLDPLAY are all over this DVD, then AHA who created those bands should have had at least one song from their set.

But all in all Its a good a watch, the best performances below.

DURAN DURAN "WILD BOYS"
Annie LENNOX "why/Sweet Dreams"
Bon Jovi "Livin on a Prayer"
U2
Bob Geldof (just for the 1985 memory)
Elton John
Joss Stone
Paul McCartney (amazing)

many more, really worth it, if u like these artists

Elton John? He was widely recognised as the worst act in the UK press.

There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently
