Aunt_Acid Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 All I saw was the Who. I missed almost all of Pink Floyd. I saw the tail end of Comfortably Numb. I hate AOL. They didn't have a schedule f*cking anywhere.
_Laurie_ Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 I'm on the east coast....are they going to show pink floyd and the who tonight? oh they are on now!
Aunt_Acid Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 i can't believe i'm so close but yet so far away... I can't believe you're so redundant, but yet so to the point.
_jr_ Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 Who are the morons who decided to put a couple of MTV idiots on to interrupt vitually every song? I was listening to/ watching P.F., and right in the middle of the song, here are these two tools telling me I'm witnessing music history. NO, I'M NOT!!! I'M WATCHING TWO IRRELEVANT BARNACLES ON THE MUSIC OF LIFE TALK OVER ONE OF THE MOST WELL CRAFTED ROCK SONGS OF ALL TIME!!! Who's bright idea was this? They should have just let us listen to the music. Screw all those MTV 'hip' people, and just keep the cameras on the reason everyone is watching...the artists. Anyway, I feel better. I missed it until around 4 pm. (Working). But what I did see, I enjoyed. A few random thoughts: I'm not so sure Destiny's Child wasn't lip sincing. Stevie Wonder was awesome. You know, for a blind guy, I can't ever remember a time when Stevie didn't look sharp. Is a song any good when you repeat your own name in the song repeatedly? (Snoop Dogg) Rob Thomas has a pretty good voice. Note to George Michael: It's 2005, not 1985. Ditch the State Trooper sunglasses. I like Jet Note to Slash: It's 2005, not 1985. Ditch the hat and the dangling smoke. Overall, I really enjoyed the 4 hours or so that I saw. Good music, a wide variety. That's probably the most tv I've watched in a row in 10 years or better. (not counting sports)
Aunt_Acid Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 I missed Pink Floyd almost completely. I caught the end of Comfortably Numb, but then those dumbas.s musical sheep who know nothing came on, interrupting PINK FLOYD. You DON'T do that. Ever. You don't do it to any band, but especially not Pink Floyd. Once again proving that to the majority of today's youth and the sh.itty media that represents it, """""music""""" is more about the image than the music. Today's average teenage audience could be deaf and not care.
Aunt_Acid Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 Now that I think of it, they talked all through Dave Gilmour's solo. Roger Waters probably bribed them backstage before the show.
Batman Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 I mentioned this in another Live 8 thread, but showing half of "Saturday Night's Allright for Fighting" by Elton, and having it interrupted by three Maroon 5 songs is just wrong. And yeah, they talked all the way through the Comfortably Numb solo. You just can't do that. Not even "Sway" from MTV can do that. Yet he did.
katie_sane Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 I'm glad MTV didn't show it down here then!! The part that I watched (from 2am) had no commentary at all, it just showed bands playing a few songs then it would switch to another venue.
invisible_r Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 I can't believe you're so redundant, but yet so to the point. cheeky as always but i will forgive you because i'm still in awe

Aunt_Acid Posted July 4, 2005 Report Posted July 4, 2005 sometimes i can't believe you are the same age as my little sister! so weird! How should I take that?
