Has anyone been following the Live Earth concerts coming up? I've been trying to get tickets to the gig at Wembley but it's sold out... i heard you can win tickets at www.together.com if anyone wants to try to get some too ... it looks amazing, is anyone going?

no

I got offerered a pair of tickets, but said No.

 

Mainly because the line up is rubbish, and 2nd because it's in Kenny's London, and 3rd I don't believe in the cause.

There was no competition at that link, anyway.;)

I'm going.

I'm going.

 

:stunned:

I'm going.

 

Then I hope you enjoy the Black Eyed Peas, as Fergie sings about her humps :laugh3:

Whats that supposed to mean? If you didnt know, 'smilies' aren't actually a proper language.

Oh, I will, dont worry.

Or maybe when James Blunt is singing "You're Beautiful".

 

All the good seats were taken up by "friends of live earth" people, so you will get business people there who have no idea what the music is.

Ok! thanks for your advice! :D

But have a fun day, Wembley is supposed to be a very nice place to get out off when the concert is finished due to the fact there is virtually no car parking available (You can pay NCP £25+ to park in one of their car parks near the venue), and the tube network finishes late.

Well as Fergie and James Blunt are on the bill, it appears there will be performers who don't, either!!:rolleyes:

Any plus points at all?:confused:

Hmmmm that's funny because after I left after Muse at Wembley Stadium, I was herded into very organised queues for the train station and got a train in 5 minutes.

 

Ps.....m_c you're a :whatever: good day! :)

But didn't Muse finish at 22:30?

 

Look what happened with Live 8, it over-ran by about 3 hours.

But I hope you enjoy your day, as overall it should make for a "once-in-a-lifetime" experience with those bands playing. I just wished it wasn't in Kenny's London, a city I will never visit again.

Didn't anyone ever tell you smilies aren't a language?:rolleyes:

Yes, I know that. I was just putting my words into 'simple' (pun intended) smilie form for YOU to understand.

 

:lol:

Good try, but you need to practice.;)

Istanbul Live Earth gig shelved

The Turkish leg of the Live Earth concerts on 7 July has been shelved due to insufficient sponsorship and lack of time, organisers have confirmed.

 

A series of live performances in Istanbul are to be replaced by screens relaying the concerts from other cities around the world.

 

Purple Concerts told Associated Press: "There is no possibility to hold a live performance due to lack of time."

 

Eight cities will hold concerts across 24 hours to highlight climate change.

 

Shortfall

 

Tokyo, Hamburg and Shanghai are among those destinations taking part in the worldwide event, alongside Rio de Janeiro, New York, Johannesburg, Sydney and London.

 

Madonna, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Duran Duran are among the acts gracing the stage for the London leg.

 

The Turkish organisers said last week they still hoped to stage a scaled-down version of the planned Istanbul concert, but conceded it would be difficult to organise.

 

However, a shortfall in financial backing forced them to reconsider their plans, organisers said.

I would have had the chance to visit the concert in Hamburg, but all the bands/artists there don't justify the price of 57€ for one ticket, although my favourite band Mando Diao is going to perform there. Mia. would be the other band I'd like to see, but definitely not for the cheeky ticket price. I'm not Scrooge McDuck!

Yes, that does sound like a bit much. If this gig is to work, it ought to get the biggest audience it can - I think.
