And, to think people were saying "Who are The Hooters?" In Philly, no less!

I could have cared less about Live Aid even tho I was squarely their demographic target -- 19 years old & white!

Wow, a twice-stolen shirt.

Not a lot of Live Aid Music was released in the eighties, considering that most leading touring acts were veterans at the time -- Dylan and Elton John and Bowie and such.

I think I was there.

It was definitely in Philly - the local broadcasts down here made a lot out of that fact last week.

I'm remembering The Police and Bruce Springsteen too.

Chapman hadn't broken yet.

Soupcan, you're probably thinking of those Amnesty International concerts. Tracy Chapman was definitely at those.

Youse '80s music guys would get a kick out of the regularly scheduled 'Essential '80s' program (at least from the bit I've heard of it).

Yes! Amnesty was it. My addled brain thanks you.

Springsteen didn't play Live Aid, but his stage did--it was used for the Wembley show.

I swear I remember watching RUN-DMC perform live during Live Aid in Philly. Unless MTV was showing a tape of the soundcheck in the middle of the day.

They played "King of Rock."

It was mentioned during the terrible TV coverage of Live 8 that DMC were the only Rap Group to play Live Aid, how htings have changed.
