God, some Americans are so corny, did anyone catch Melissa etheridge? Great voice, but her rant in the middle of one of her songs was just fucking sad. Shit like "America is freedom" and even worse was something like "every other country wants to be like us!"....

Loser


I actually like Melissa from back in the day when she had her hits before she got sick and tried to watch her performance but when she started talking and talking instead of singing I had to turn.
"Why'd I waste my kisses on you baby?" R.I.P. Prince You've finally found your way back home. Well Done.

Did you have fun? I worked at the show! I felt bad because the weather was so shitty! That's why I love Germans, they will come out and really deal with any weather conditions under the sun or moon for a good show and a good cause. I think they clocked the crowd at 30,000 total (less than the others?), but even that made me feel really proud that people came anyway. cool

German media and the organisation speak of 31.500 attendance.

I had a lot of fun. I was standing right in front of the stage.

Of course the weather in the beginning wasn't that good. But the whole second half of the concert was sunny without rain. So it got better and better.

I'd never buy a ticket to a stadium concert for the lower or upper tier - that's no fun. You only see the artists on the screen. So even at a 9-hour-concert, standing isn't as bad as it seems.

By the way, this weekend, just one week after the show, we have 30° C here in Hamburg and lots of sun. The 07/07/07 was just bad timing.

There were 45.000 tickets on sale - so 13.500 weren't sold. I think, that's because there weren't any REAL stars on the show. Of course you have Shakira, Snoop Dogg, Enrique Iglesias, Katie Melua, Mando Diao, Cat Stevens (Yusuf), ...

But I mean names, that can sell out a stadium alone in 3 hours: - Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, The Who - you need real classic acts. "Michael Jackson: comeback performance at LIVE EARTH - performing the 'Earth Song'" - that alone would have sold out the place.

If only one of these artists would have performed in Hamburg, the show would have been sold out weeks prior to the event. It had nothing to do with the weather.
