Live Aid - 6pm BBC2

[NooNakedJacuzziness]

I’m getting snacks and drinks in and watching the whole thing while pretending I’m 12 again. Can’t wait for the Quo to kick it off in half an hour! Anyone else gonna watch?

Baby Andy Kershaw…

Andy Kershaw with his very 80s hair do.

How clever was that logo for live aid? Brilliant and simple.

Probably not many cameras either @PuppyMonkey

Tony Hadley also regretting his outfit 😆

Glad I found you ❤️Spandau

Mr eyeballs is out so I can watch the whole thing in peace and remember 😁

There’s an anniversary performance tomorrow, wonder if any Live Aid performers will go. Agree it’s brilliant show.

Loving the arm dancing by the backing singers!

What’s with all this prancing about in leather maxi coats? Was that a thing?
First Midge and now Tony. They look like Nazis.

Ooh Spandau!😍 I’m still waiting for Martin Kemp to declare his undying love for me (as he frequently did in my daydreams)

Tony’s voice sounds great, have to say.

And not a phone in sight. Because the accursed things didn’t exist, obv. We have so lost being in the moment at live entertainment.

Tony Hadley has a belter of a voice as well. I remember the NME describing it as a pompous foghorn. They definitely started with the weaker acts to build it up. I missed U2 and Queen.

Definitely agree, can’t bear it when you see stuff on tv and it’s all just a crowd of arms outstretched with phones recording!

I went to a Rewind festival and he and the guy from Go West did a fabulous version of Sex on Fire! Both of them sounded amazing.

I loved Steve Norman. He still looks really good

Steve Norman was quite hot in this sense 😍

His hair. His sax.

That look to the camera.

That’s only because they have no lighters

I doubt they all brought water bottles either!

It was definitely a ' look' back then. Quite like it myself.😁

Crowds were hardy then 😁 there’s hardly a hat/sun shade in sight and I bet no factor 50 😆

I took a photo of Steve Norman's Live Aid hair on TV and then took it to the hair salon (which was inside Virgin Megastore ) for the stylist to copy. I was 12

Not sure I’d call Paul Weller a weak act
