Well...we are 37 minutes into the supposed "global concert of a lifetime" and MTV has managed to show 12 minutes of commercials for reality programming,interrupted 3 performances,and have shown a highlights package from the UK with the biggest names of the day already performing.
Yep. MTV has found a way to not show music on a day where music is all around them. So away with the Live 8 thread....

this is sweet - somebody kidnapped the dj's and they're letting Floyd play! Fortunately there was probably a 40-something suit in charge at MTV who said, "Don't You F'ing DARE Cut To A Commercial If You Know What Is Good For You!!!"
Partway through "Comfortably Numb" and so far so good.

but still if they toured it would easily be the highest grossing tour ever. Totally Agree with that

This is excellent. I did notice that they brought in that gal to help on the high parts. Hey, we are all getting older.

BTW ... since they aren't asking for money .. has anyone figured out who is paying for this all??My guess is, the concert goers.

My guess is, the concert goers. In Philly it's an outside concert for all to attend
My guess the taxpayers of Philly are paying for that

The point is to make it so you can't have a clean audio copy of the song, so you are going to have to buy the CD.
To: tiredoflaundry
