Thanks: Gave 33, Got 29 | Live Aid DVD
Has anybody else got this yet??
Recieved it last week from CD wow (17.99). It makes you realise what a great time it was then for music. Can you imagine trying to pull this off now??
Worth the price for Queen alone. Fantastic concert.

my fave performances are Queen, Bowie, the Who, and very surprised by Ultravox (vocals were superb) - never rated them as a 'live' band,
The Brit stuff was much better than the American IMO (performance and sound wise)

Not to mention, it was never intended for release.

Am I right in thinking that the Led Zep performance is missing from this set?

Led Zep is missing, they deemed their set too below par for them to be included on the dvd & asked for it not to put on.

Watched the first disc yesterday and i thoroughly enjoyed it, i forgot that Jack Nicholson presented a few of the bands and i just couldnt get over how young he looks. Will watch the second disc over the next day or two.
