GamerGlitch 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2007 (edited) Okay, so the Live Earth Concert, sponsored by Al Gore was today. I guess it was held today because it is 7/7/2007, 7 being a lucky number (I guess?) it was a very lucky date, indeed. At first, I thought it wasn't going to be that special of an event, nor fun to watch but it included so many artists of different genres, it was hard not to enjoy, it had a little bit of everything so every one could enjoy it, whatever music you like there is a good chance it was in this event. If you think I'm playing about how many artists were involved in the event here's the list which also has the performance areas...

Watermonkey 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2007 Spinal Tap is the only band I see in that list that is appropriate to the occasion; a fake band for a fake cause. Just about what one would expect from an event associated with Algore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GamerGlitch 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2007 Actually a lot of people were involved in the movement, don;t get me wrong, I know there were fakes. However, some people, one example Bon Jovi, are for the effort, and helped plan the whole event out. And eve if the people weren't originally for saving mother nature and our selves they have either joined the effort, or were forced to during the day. They were forced to so they could look good in front of the crowd, and most had to use Bio-diesel, and other alternatives to reduce pollution. Bedsides, even though some of the people aren't for Global Warming relief, and the effort, the Event as the whole and all the artists came together to make it a great multi concert.

Just about what one would expect from an event associated with Algore.How is this a fake cause? Live Earth is a venue of concerts formed all over the world dedicated for a "greener" earth. It doesn't matter who organized this event. It does not entitle you the right to declare this event as a "fake." Artists from all over the world are reciprocating back to society to help the world. If anyone is trying to help the world, their political decisions should not be a factor. Edited July 16, 2007 by BordaForx (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
