Do you think there will be a huge benefit concert for tsunami victims?

[Beware the Beast Man]

Not to sound cynical, but since 80's nostalgia is coming back, do you see a Live Aid-style concert on the horizon to benefit the victims of the disaster? Since there was already a 20th anniversary Band Aid recording, I'm inclined to say yes.

1. What, and displace reality programming? PPV, maybe...

4. Barring a nuclear winter..

.. this would be the most catastrophic disaster in our lifetime.

But sadly, not enough to displace R-progs for good.

2. remember concert for bangladesh?

thats what really started those concerts for causes afaik.

[Beware the Beast Man]

3. Exactly,

but the problem with the Concert for Bangladesh is that it was a huge financial disaster. Hopefully, if someone does organize one, may it go off much better. I see Geldof planning a Live Aid 2.

5. oh you know it

Nothing wrong with that, as long as the aid gets to the people in need and it isn't just a big publicity stunt.

8. And as long as numbskulls like O'Reilly don't attempt to sully the effort

With their own agendas.

6. If there is, I think this would be a Kick-ass line up...

Jane's Addiction
Nine Inch Nails
The Smiths (Reunion)
U2

And the headliner would be...


The Clash!!!!

7. Featuring the reanimated corpse of Joe Strummer?

13. Well, I'd let them get someone fill in for them...

[Beware the Beast Man]

10. Don't make them laugh!
