Live 8

On R.E.M.'s set: Something about the earpieces Michael Stipe was wearing, coupled with the bizarre blue makeup mask...makes him look like Batman.


Floyd reunion story. http://blogs.mercurynews.com/aei/2005/07/live_8s_histori.html

So...Pink Floyd just finished up. They played Breathe, Money, Wish You Were Here, and Comfortably Numb. During Comfy, some little irritant from MTV Europe started talking, and then so did her irritant cohart from VH1. Further proof that both of these channels need to fucking go away. There is no respect for the artform they claim to carry the flag for.

Now the irritants at the show in Philly are talking over Stevie Wonder. I'm sure they're doing all of this because they want to keep people from creating their own MP3s, and therefore not buying the inevitable album. But it's just sad.
