LIVE 8 CONCERT
THE LONG WALK TO JUSTICE

Live 8 on air

By JASON CHEAH

Twenty years on, the cause for poverty eradication continues, and Astro subscribers will be able to witness another defining moment in history with the live broadcast of Live 8 this Saturday from 10pm.

Live 8, a star-studded humanitarian event organised in the spirit of 1985’s Live Aid, airs on an exclusive channel, Astro LIVE 8 (Astro Channel 88), while on radio, MIX FM will be broadcasting the entire proceedings.

The original Live Aid was the brainchild of two pop stars turned activists, Sir Bob Geldof (Boomtown Rats) and Midge Ure (Ultravox). It was staged to raise funds for famine relief in Ethiopia. The two trans-Atlantic concerts brought together 60 of the most popular rock stars of that generation to perform in front of a live audience of 162,000 (90,000 in Philadelphia and 72,000 in London) and broadcast to an estimated 1.9 billion TV viewers in 150 countries.

This Saturday, Geldof, now joined by rock icon Bono of U2 and music promoter Harvey Goldsmith, is planning an even more massive gathering of the world’s biggest artistes. They will perform in SIX locations for one purpose: to demand the G8 leaders, who will be meeting in Edinburgh, Scotland, from July 6 to 8, to act against extreme poverty.

The concerts will be held in London’s Hyde Park (England), Rome’s Circus Maximus (Italy), the Palais de Versailles in Paris (France), the Pottsdamer Platz in Berlin (Germany), the Museum of Arts in Philadelphia (US), and in Park Place, Barrie (Canada).
