Live Aid was awesome - i wish i was alive at the time to experience but alas- born 2 yrs too late...ah well. my favorite band is U2 and live Aid in 1985 is apparently where they were truly given the lift off so thats wat i remember the most about it. And also i remember they re-aired parts of it on tv recently and i loved when Let it be was sang at the end i believe. must've been an amazing event. Altho it's cool they're bringing it back - i don't think they can top the first one.

plus - generally music was better back then.
