Is anyone watching LIVE 8 concert? BBC2 and BBC1 and BBC3

[RTKangaMummy]

It has just started

heheh

Thought REM were good but everyone else a bit rubbish so far (missed U2). I was cringing for Ricky Gervais.
Annie Lennox will be good, and Robbie.

what did gervais do

U2 were excellent. highlight so far in fact.

God this thread has taken a bitter tone - I thought that Ms Dynamite's rendition of Redemption Song was really lovely

thats mumsnet!

Gervais 'died' on stage

doing what thoguh?
baton twirling?

Ricky G just died and had to do his Office dance to finally dredge up a laugh.

I felt sorry for him, some guy was on doing a sound check, dont know if it was part of the joke or not, the audience didnt seem to know either. It was so embarrassing.

Love him and Jonathan Ross together though, pmsl last night.

Me too I think he's hysterical and JR is funny too.

REM were excellent and, surprisingly, I thought Keane were rather good. Never liked them before. The little chubby chap can sing a bit.

I must agree over the lead singer from Keane, he can sing.

I'm old though, I keep thinking, why do they sing such gloomy stuff! God! I'm sounding like my mother.

Now Status Quo, there were a band that knew they were shallow and played to it

you can sign the list and wait for you name to be shown at the back of the stage -here
....if you have nothing better to do......
