Did Anyone Watch Live 8?

[Mellow Chaos]

I'm mostly interested in how Pink Floyd performed and which songs they played.

Also, who knows where you can view replays of the performances?

I listened all day at work on the satellite radio. It was fun to switch back-and-forth between the different shows to catch the ones I wanted. The only one that slipped by was Gordon Lightfoot.

Some of the 'pleas' were a bit shallow and uninspiring, but the music was good. The funniest part, Celine Dion had taped her bit the night before in Las Vegas for the Toronto show. The crowd overwhelmingly boo-ed her, and nothing Dan Akroid said could get them to stop.

Pink Floyd was great. They did a 20-minute set - Comfortably Numb and about three others.

The night before was a 6-hour show, The History of Pink Floyd with interviews and music. (I was at work for a 36-hour shift and had plenty of time to play the radio.)
