Bjork
She's a loon, surely

dont' get me wrong I've seen her in concert and have some CDs but she is a loon, I mean look at her eye makeup

[tammybear]

no not really although here sort of tells you which singers/bands are gonna be in which programme. not particularly helpful lol

[SenoraPostrophe]

bjork is a loon, I agree.

hey, now it's the verve with coldplay.

[Alannah]

I'm watching and as I have bad pmt at the moment I keep getting overwhelmed with waves of emotion at the wonder of human nature -which is a bit disturbing for a hardened cynic like myself. I really hope they don't show lots of pics of starving children as the original Africa footage from Live Aid had me in floods of tears earlier on

[snafu]

Am I a really grumpy old bag for not being remotely interested in any of the bands on today?

[jenkel]

Yes and I'm jealous of dh who is there, but no babysitter, so me at home.........., but I'll probably get a better view

[snafu]

Who's Fibale mears?

[tamum]

Haven't started watching yet but we just got back from the Make Poverty History protest at the Meadows (Edinburgh), and I have to say the atmosphere was wonderful. Thousands and thousands of people, all very good-humoured and peaceful

[jessicaandbumpsmummy]

bloody fantastic - just put it on now, but was listening to it in the car from when it started. FANTASTIC

[lucy5]

You're not so old sw, Good Charlotte sounds like a good guess but there again i'm an old wrinkly too. Not so old that i'm enjoying Elton John but looking forward to seeing what happens with Pete Doherty. What a strange pairing, unless it was mears being ironic.
