Live Aid is coming to dvd on 11/16. 4 disc set. All the money is going to charity.

Too bad the musical performances weren't better.

Anybody else remember the old "No Nukes" concert movie that used to play the eighties midnite movie circuit?

That I'd like to see come out on DVD!

After "Kiss Alive", aren't all "live" recordings sweetened by overdubbing ... maybe sampling in this particular case.

There was some good music there. I'll consider, depending on price. Kind of a natural to sit on the shelf next to Woodstock and Monterey Pop.

No Nukes had GREAT music, but I wouldn't want to contribute to the cause. I'm for "safer nukes" not "no nukes."

I hadn't even thought about the cause! Yeah, that'd be dated now, still you got some great live footage of Jackson Brown, James Taylor, Carly Simon, Crosby ,Stills, & Nash, to say nothing of the in-his-prime Bruce Springsteen.

I remember Live Aid well, that was the day I vowed to never watch MTV again. I waited all day to see The Cars (coolest band on earth) and when they finally came on, they kept on cutting to JFK airport where Phil Collins' plane was landing. COMPLETE disrespect. BITE ME MTV!!!
