Is anyone watching Live Earth? Someone out there has to be LOL I only caught the last 2 hours of it,but i was dreadfully disappointed by the Smashing Pumpkins' performance,anyone else? They looked like they were all on sedatives! I think the rest of the band quit cuz they were falling asleep being in that band with Billy! Roger Waters is on now,and i guess he's as good as can be expected from a man his age. He never could sing that well but at least he's doing songs people KNOW unlike SP who only did one that i recognized and i thought i was a big fan LOL Any other opinions so far?

When you organise a rock festival & Spinal Tap are the best act on there by miles you have problems.

Genesis, RHCP, Beastie Boys, Foo Fighters, The Police, Roger Waters, Smashing Pumpkins.

Those are the only ones I would have cared to see. And Spinal Tap of course.

There was way too much crap to put up with. Bon Jovi, Fall Out Boy, Akon, Taking Back Sunday, Pussycat Dolls, Metallica (15 years ago and it would be a different story), Linkin Park, Ludacris, Black Eyed Peas, Jack Johnson, Xzibit, Lenny Kravitz. Who ever booked those should be banned from ever booking again.

Hillarious that the Antarctica concert only had one band, and only 17 people attended.

I mean, who in the f*ck among these organisers thought it was a good idea to have a concert in Antarctica?

I think the only reason Metallica were there was because the organisers were using their stage for their own gig at Wembley tonight.

Seriously that will piss off their fans (whats left of them) even more. Caring about the Earth? Thats soooo not metal.

i was watching some of it, but none of the acts i wanted to see were on when i was watching.

i saw part of a performance by black eyed peas... if thats what you can call hop-ing around sucking ass.

i have never been a fan of music being played in giant stadiums anyways.

Even out of the artists I like. Genesis and The Police are the only ones I would downright kill to see. Because they will only be playing stuff from their back catelog, rather than promoting a new album that probably wont be good.

RHCP are one of my favorite bands, but they would just be playing stuff from Stadium Arcadium, no thanks. I still can't say anything about the new SP lineup, I don't know what to think of them yet.

there should be some kinda rule where you cant keep a band name unless you only change one band member every year or less..
