Live Earth Concert

http://www.nme.com/news/the-police/27621

Uncle Gary tipped me off on the Live Earth concert series taking place across the Globe this summer. Much like the Live8 concerts of…2 years ago now? Unsure of when that happened. Must be back in 2005.

I had heard rumours of the concert series happening but there were no real line-ups officially announced at the time.

Let me tell you of the greatest rumour to ever grace our ears.

The concept of Live Earth is to have music happening in every continent. “That’s a swell idea.” all of you are thinking…until you think of how many continents there are and then you say “Wait a second…Antarctica?!”

So back to the rumour I head on Chez 106 a few weeks back…there is rumour that a mighty band from yesteryear will reform and play in Antarctica.

That band’s name is SPINAL TAP.

Oh my. Honestly, if this were to happen, this would be bigger than Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who and The Smashing Pumpkins all taking the same stage, on my birthday, for my birthday and heck, while they are at it, I would be on stage with them.

We are talking Spinal Tap here…the Gods of rock, the band mightier than mortal men, the group who has their amplifier knobs go up to 11. They know how to rock.

Anyhow, I would seriously consider a trip to Antarctica to see these guys. 😉

Back onto the Live Earth concert series – as always, a cool concept. I’m glad the Smashing Pumpkins will be playing. HEY, this might be the first chance we get to see them live on television since their comeback. Neat-o. Other than that, I don’t think the concert will be close to Ottawa so it’s kind of reach for this guy!

One reply on “Live Earth Concert”

Heard that JonBon is also supposed to be playing this concert.

And Spinal Tap rocks! Where else can you find classic lyrics such as “You know where you stand in a hell hole. Folks lend a hand in a hell hole. Girl get me back to my hell hole.”
