723.0. "LIVE AID 10 YEARS LATER" by RANGER::ROBINSON () Mon Jul 10 1995 13:17

    
    
    Incase anyone is interested, this month makes 10 years that Live Aid
    took place..... VH1 is showing Live Aid on Saturday, July 15th at 4:00.
    This will be the first time that Live Aid was ever broadcasted besides
    the day it happened of course.  You might want to set your VCR's.

    I remember that Live Aid very well, even gave a donation and got
    a t-shirt.  I remember the operator saying that I was the first from
    the area to call (don't know how true that is).  Can't believe it
    has been 10 years already.  It was a great show all the way around.
    I distinctly remember that it was the first time I had ever seen
    U2 perform and I instantly fell in love with their music.  It was
    also where the Mick Jagger and David Bowie "Dancing in the Streets"
    video debuted.  Funny what you remember.
    
    Definitely will have to make a point to watch.  I know they probably
    won't show the whole thing, just hightlights but still worth watching.

723.2Its the WHOLE show....TOOTER::ROBINSONTue Jul 11 1995 11:528
    
    
    From what VH1 is advertising, they are showing the WHOLE thing!
    Starting at 4:00 until whenever.  I also remember seeing Mick Jagger
    and Tina Turner :-) when he pulled off her skirt :-) even SHE was 
    surprised :-).  I know what you mean about 10 years already...

    i was THERE! a friend and i took the train from boston to philly and
    were actually in the stadium. i had people taping the show for me while
    i was there.   it was quite an experience. i would do it again in a
    second!
    
    i thought TV GUIDE said that this was just going to be highlights, not
    the entire show. even highlights would be nice to see. but not if they
    show the babbling idiots from MTV.

    When I checked my TV Guide it indicated the show would start at
    4PM and end at midnight.  There will be some sort of half hour
    special prior to 4PM.
