Wish I Was There

I really enjoyed watching the coverage of Live 8 on Saturday. Being of a certain age, I still remember watching the original Live Aid gig and it's interesting to see how polished some of the performers were this time around, compared to the rock'n'roll raggedness of 1985.

Of course, the highlight for me was watching Pink Floyd. I was lucky enugh to see them perform The Wall at Earl's Court in '81 and I'd forgotten just how good they were. I don't suppose there's much likelihood of them doing anything else, but if they do I want to be there...
