Yeah I think the announcer was mistaken about the Clapton deal. Clapton is seen at a lot of fundraisers, but they are usually ones that he starts (like the Crossroads fundraiser)]]> Opinions and Polls Taso https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/3/#post-110053 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/3/#post-109954 Wed, 06 Jul 2005 20:28:36 +0000
I'll admit, I didn't watch the entire time, but most of the day. The last two hours were highlights from London (mostly).

Although, I heard a Live Cream Song (White Room), on the Radio the next day. And the radio announcer did say it was the Cream Reunion. So unless he forgot to leave out that it was the Cream Reunion at the RAH. I assumed it was from Live8.

Looks like I heard wrong (or the announcer screwed up). Usually Clapton plays at every fund, benefit concert there is, so I just assumed it might have been possible.]]> Opinions and Polls klim https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/3/#post-109954 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/3/#post-109928 Wed, 06 Jul 2005 17:29:22 +0000 Opinions and Polls Musenfreund https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/3/#post-109928 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/2/#post-109919 Wed, 06 Jul 2005 16:31:36 +0000
My word. The look on Elton's face when Docherty appeared, with a lighter in his mouth. Looked so drunk (or worse....) and didn't seem to know half the words. I am sure Elton signalled to the band to cut it short.

Totally agree, he ruined it. And he's meant to be one of the young "talents" out there.

Seems to me the "old farts" at Live 8 did a great job of making some of the yound pretenders look second rate. Maybe that's why there is a switch to proper music again, like jazz. Jamie Cullum for instance, knows his stuff and is excellent. Maybe even the masses are getting cheesed off with the same old boy / girl bands churning out the same old formula crap.

Hope so anyway! ha ha

Got to say Paul Doherty ruined a Bolan classic...!]]> Opinions and Polls stan ton https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/2/#post-109916 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/2/#post-109911 Wed, 06 Jul 2005 16:11:06 +0000 Opinions and Polls Taso https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/2/#post-109911 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/live-8/paged/2/#post-109907 Wed, 06 Jul 2005 16:02:04 +0000
Yeah Clapton played and dedicated his first number to his number one fan......you! Can't beleive you missed it mate.

No, he didn't , as far as I know anyway.

All the best
