What get's me though is how Bob Geldof keeps getting described in the press as a "rock star".
I mean, fuck, he was a one hit wonder at best, who's one hit was based on a totally commercial exploitation of a deranged 14 year old girl who shot up a schoolyard.
And now he's a frigging knight? Sir Bob? Gimme a break!
Some famous dude who's name I don't remember once said something like
"First they laugh at you, then they fight you, then they heap honours on your head, then you don't matter anymore."
He was excellent in the movie, "The Wall"
I started recording Live Earth but so far, I don't know any of the bands Must be getting too old.
