Bohemian Rhapsody We’re still in 1985, and it’s July in West Berlin.

In which I get a new haircut, move flats, and go to a Live Aid party. The Summer of ‘85 was hot and people were taking their clothes off, while I was trying to be less English.

How Live Aid Changed Music Activism Forever in 1985 Discover the transformative power of Live Aid, a pivotal concert that united millions for humanitarian causes through music and activism.

Some concerts entertain. Others become history. Live Aid (1985) was one of those rare moments when music, emotion, and global awareness met on the same stage.
I revisit its meaning, beyond nostalgia. Read more:

#LiveAid ging de geschiedenis in als één van het grootste muziekevenement allertijden voor het goede doel. Klaarblijkelijk was er ook nog een #AidFashion. #JaneSeymour en #FreddyMercury waren daar als bruidspaar te zien.

Wouldn’t it be good to be on side? The grass is always greener over there. Wouldn’t it be good if we could live without a care?

I’ve always thought Nik Kershaw was a bit of fun.

Many associate #BobGeldof with ' #LiveAid ', but as leader of 'TheBoomtownRats' he penned one my favorite lyrics:
