The original event was organised by <a href="/wiki/Bob_Geldof" title="Bob Geldof">Bob Geldof</a> and <a href="/wiki/Midge_Ure" title="Midge Ure">Midge Ure</a> to raise further funds for relief of the <a href="/wiki/1983%E2%80%931985_famine_in_Ethiopia" title="1983–1985 famine in Ethiopia">1983–1985 famine in Ethiopia</a>, a movement that started with the release of the successful charity single "<a href="/wiki/Do_They_Know_It%27s_Christmas%3F" title="Do They Know It's Christmas?">Do They Know It's Christmas?</a>" in December 1984. Billed as the "global jukebox", Live Aid was held simultaneously at <a href="/wiki/Wembley_Stadium_(1923)" title="Wembley Stadium (1923)">Wembley Stadium</a> in <a href="/wiki/London" title="London">London</a>, and <a href="/wiki/John_F._Kennedy_Stadium" class="mw-redirect" title="John F.

It was one of the largest satellite link-ups and television broadcasts of all time; an estimated audience of 1.9 billion, in 150 nations watched the live broadcast, nearly 40 percent of the world population.<a href="#cite_note-CNN-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a> The impact of Live Aid on famine relief has been debated for years.

The combined footage would then have had to be bounced back by satellite to the various broadcasters worldwide. Due to the time lag (the signal would take several seconds to be broadcast twice across the Atlantic Ocean), Richards concluded there was no way for Jagger to hear or see Bowie's performance, meaning there could be no interaction between the artists, essentially defeating the whole point of the exercise. On top of this, both artists objected to miming during what was perceived as a historic event. Instead, Jagger and Bowie worked with Richards to create a video of the song they would have performed, a cover of "<a href="/wiki/Dancing_in_the_Street" title="Dancing in the Street">Dancing in the Street</a>", which was shown on the screens of both stadiums and broadcast as part of many TV networks' coverage.<a href="#cite_note-Duet-22">[22]</a> Each of the two main parts of the concert ended with their particular continental all-star anti-hunger anthems, with <a href="/wiki/Band_Aid_(band)" title="Band Aid (band)">Band Aid</a>'s "<a href="/wiki/Do_They_Know_It%27s_Christmas%3F" title="Do They Know It's Christmas?">Do They Know It's Christmas?</a>" closing the UK concert, and <a href="/wiki/USA_for_Africa" class="mw-redirect" title="USA for Africa">USA for Africa</a>'s "<a href="/wiki/We_Are_the_World" title="We Are the World">We Are the World</a>" closing the US concert (and thus the entire event itself).<a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> Concert organisers have subsequently said they were particularly keen to ensure at least one surviving member of <a href="/wiki/The_Beatles" title="The Beatles">the Beatles</a>, ideally <a href="/wiki/Paul_McCartney" title="Paul McCartney">Paul McCartney</a>, took part in the concert as they felt that having an 'elder statesman' from British music would give it greater legitimacy in the eyes of the political leaders whose opinions the performers were trying to shape.

Unfortunately, in the rush to set up the transatlantic feeds, the sound feed from Philadelphia was sent to London via transatlantic cable, while the video feed was via satellite, which meant a lack of synchronisation on British television receivers. Due to the constant activities in both London and Philadelphia, the BBC producers Only Broadcast two songs from the reunion of <a href="/wiki/Crosby,_Stills,_Nash_%26_Young" title="Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young">Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young</a> after 10 pm; the same applied to Rick Springfield and REO Speedwagon. BBC only broadcast one song from the <a href="/wiki/BLACK_SABBATH" class="mw-redirect" title="BLACK SABBATH">BLACK SABBATH</a> set around 3 am. Ashford & Simpson - Solid was not broadcast on the BBC. The BBC, however, did supply a <a href="/wiki/Backhaul_(broadcasting)" title="Backhaul (broadcasting)">'clean feed'</a> to various television channels in Europe. <a href="/wiki/American_Broadcasting_Company" title="American Broadcasting Company">ABC</a> was largely responsible for the US broadcast (although ABC themselves only telecast the final three hours of the concert from Philadelphia, hosted by <a href="/wiki/Dick_Clark" title="Dick Clark">Dick Clark</a>, with the rest shown in syndication through <a href="/wiki/Orbis_Communications" class="mw-redirect" title="Orbis Communications">Orbis Communications</a>, acting on behalf of ABC). An entirely separate and simultaneous US feed was provided for cable viewers by <a href="/wiki/MTV" title="MTV">MTV</a>, whose broadcast was presented in stereo and accessible as such for those with stereo televisions. At the time, before <a href="/wiki/Multichannel_television_sound" class="mw-redirect" title="Multichannel television sound">multichannel television sound</a> was enacted nationwide, very few televisions reproduced stereo signals, and few television stations were able to broadcast in stereo. While the telecast was run advertisement-free by the BBC, both the MTV and syndicated/ABC broadcasts included advertisements and interviews. As a result, many songs were omitted due to the commercial breaks, as these songs were played during these slots. The biggest issue of the syndicated/ABC coverage is that the network had wanted to reserve some of the biggest acts that had played earlier in the day for certain points in the entire broadcast, particularly in the final three hours in prime time; thus, Orbis Communications had some sequences replaced by others, especially those portions of the concert that had acts from London and Philadelphia playing simultaneously. For example, while the London/Wembley finale was taking place at 22:00 (10:00 pm) London time, syndicated viewers saw segments that had been recorded earlier so that ABC could show the UK finale during its prime-time portion. In 1995, <a href="/wiki/VH1" title="VH1">VH1</a> and <a href="/wiki/MuchMusic" class="mw-redirect" title="MuchMusic">MuchMusic</a> aired a re-edited ten-hour re-broadcast of the concert for its 10th anniversary. The Live Aid concert in London was also the first time that the BBC <a href="/wiki/Outside_broadcast" class="mw-redirect" title="Outside broadcast">outside broadcast</a> sound equipment had been used for an event of such scale. In stark contrast to the mirrored sound systems commonly used by the rock band touring engineers, with two 40–48-channel mixing consoles at the <a href="/wiki/Front_of_house" title="Front of house">front of house</a> and another pair for monitors, the BBC sound engineers had to use multiple 12-channel desks.

The BBC operated three hundred phone lines so that members of the public could make donations using their credit cards. The phone number and an address to which viewers could send cheques were repeated every twenty minutes. Nearly seven hours into the concert in London, Bob Geldof enquired how much money had been raised so far; he was told about £1.2 million. He is said to have been sorely disappointed by the amount and marched to the BBC commentary position. Pumped up further by a performance by Queen, which he later called "absolutely amazing", Geldof gave an interview in which BBC presenter <a href="/wiki/David_Hepworth" title="David Hepworth">David Hepworth</a> had attempted to provide a postal address to which potential donations could be sent; Geldof interrupted him in mid-flow and shouted "fuck the address, let's get the numbers".

In his autobiography, Is That It? (published in 1986), Geldof was critical of the remark, saying, "He displayed a complete lack of understanding of the issues raised by Live Aid. ...

In an interview for <a href="/wiki/Rolling_Stone" title="Rolling Stone">Rolling Stone</a>, Geldof asked: "Who the fuck are the Hooters?"<a href="#cite_note-Eric_Bazilian_interview-70">[70]</a> However, in a twist of irony in December 2004, Geldof appeared on the bill with the Hooters in Germany as their opening act.<a href="#cite_note-Eric_Bazilian_interview-70">[70]</a> <a href="/wiki/Adam_Ant" title="Adam Ant">Adam Ant</a> subsequently criticised the event and expressed regrets about playing it, saying, "I was asked by Sir Bob [sic] to promote this concert. They had no idea they could sell it out. Then, in Bob's book, he said, 'Adam was over the hill, so I let him have one number.' ... Doing that show was the biggest fucking mistake in the world. <a href="/wiki/Orders,_decorations,_and_medals_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Orders, decorations, and medals of the United Kingdom">Knighthoods</a> were made, <a href="/wiki/Bono" title="Bono">Bono</a> got it made, and it was a waste of fucking time.

As they were wheeled out – or rather bullied by Geldof into playing – it became clear that this was another parade of the same old rock aristocracy in a concert for Africa, organised by someone who, while advertising his concern for and sympathy with, the continent didn't see fit to celebrate or dignify the place by including on the Live Aid bill a single African performer." Kershaw also described the event as "irritating, shallow, sanctimonious and self-satisfied" for failing to confront the fundamental causes of the famine and being "smug in its assumption that a bunch of largely lamentable rock and pop floozies was capable of making a difference, without tackling simultaneously underlying problems".<a href="#cite_note-73">[73]</a> In 2024, Geldof rejected the charge that organising the concerts meant that he was a <a href="/wiki/White_savior" title="White savior">white savior</a>, calling the accusation "the greatest load of bollocks ever".<a href="#cite_note-74">[74]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Led_Zeppelin_reunion">Led Zeppelin reunion</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Live_Aid&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Led Zeppelin reunion">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1224211176"><div class="quotebox pullquote floatright" style="width:25%; ; padding:10px;"> <blockquote class="quotebox-quote left-aligned" style=""> "I thought it was just going to be low-key and we'd all get together and have a play.

title="Bruce Springsteen">Bruce Springsteen</a> decided not to appear at Live Aid despite his huge global popularity in 1985. Geldof had originally scheduled the event for 6 July but moved the date to the 13th, especially to accommodate Springsteen. Springsteen later expressed regret at turning down Geldof's invitation, stating that he "simply did not realise how big the whole thing was going to be"<a href="#cite_note-87">[87]</a> and regretted not performing an acoustic set.<a href="#cite_note-88">[88]</a> During the MTV broadcast, VJ <a href="/wiki/Martha_Quinn" title="Martha Quinn">Martha Quinn</a> repeatedly and erroneously claimed that Springsteen would in fact make an appearance.<a href="#cite_note-89">[89]</a> <a href="/wiki/Michael_Jackson" title="Michael Jackson">Michael Jackson</a> declined to appear. His press agent, Norman Winter, released a statement at the time saying that Jackson was "working around the clock in the studio on a project that he's made a major commitment to" and consequently could not free up sufficient time to rehearse and perform at Live Aid. Winter added, "Michael is just about living in the studio, rehearsing and recording. I know what could be more major than Live Aid, but Michael couldn't turn his back on his responsibility to the people he's working with. This affected employment for a lot of people."<a href="#cite_note-90">[90]</a> <a href="/wiki/Prince_(musician)" title="Prince (musician)">Prince</a> also declined to appear in person but sent a pre-taped video of an acoustic version of "4 the Tears in Your Eyes", which was played during the concert in Philadelphia.

He feared that Culture Club would fail to measure up performing for two billion people, and he disliked what he viewed as self-important posturing on the part of other participants. In his memoir Take It Like a Man he said his band members were angry with him because he had "ruined their chance of a part in history".<a href="#cite_note-93">[93]</a> <a href="/wiki/Huey_Lewis_and_the_News" title="Huey Lewis and the News">Huey Lewis and the News</a> were scheduled to play the Philadelphia leg and were in some of the promotional material but decided on 28 June to pull out over concerns that the money raised by relief efforts thus far had not been reaching those it was intended to help. "It was a very tough decision", Lewis told <a href="/wiki/Rolling_Stone" title="Rolling Stone">Rolling Stone</a>. "We felt, having done the <a href="/wiki/USA_for_Africa" class="mw-redirect" title="USA for Africa">USA for Africa</a> thing, that we should wait and watch that ...

He had himself recently returned from a trip to Africa to see how the money had so far been spent, and suggested that Lewis do the same.

It could've been, and it should've been the turning point for Phil (<a href="/wiki/Phil_Lynott" title="Phil Lynott">Lynott</a>). And I think that really did Phil in quite a lot that we were never asked to play. I mean Phil, he had a few problems at the time, but at the end of the day, if he would've been asked to play Live Aid, that would've been a goal for him to clean himself up to do that gig. We were all very upset of the fact that we weren't asked to do it because Phil knew Geldof and Midge Ure very well indeed. I was surprised that we weren't asked to do that. I don't think Phil ever forgave Bob."<a href="#cite_note-100">[100]</a> Lynott died less than five months after the concert, from complications associated with his drug and alcohol addictions.

I went along on my own."<a href="#cite_note-101">[101]</a> Waters appeared backstage at the Wembley Stadium leg of Live Aid (where he was interviewed), and the classic Pink Floyd lineup reunited for the follow-up to Live Aid, <a href="/wiki/Live_8" title="Live 8">Live 8</a>, in 2005.<a href="#cite_note-102">[102]</a> <a href="/wiki/Neil_Peart" title="Neil Peart">Neil Peart</a>, drummer of Canadian rock band <a href="/wiki/Rush_(band)" title="Rush (band)">Rush</a>, said: "<a href="/wiki/Geddy_Lee" title="Geddy Lee">Geddy</a> was involved with the <a href="/wiki/Tears_Are_Not_Enough" title="Tears Are Not Enough">Northern Lights</a> charity record here in Canada, although Rush wasn't invited to participate in the Live Aid event—mainly because if you look at the guest list, it was very much an 'in-crowd' situation. We were 'out' by then. We didn't refuse to take part because of any principles. Mind you, I wouldn't have been happy being part of this scenario. Those stars should have shut up and just given over their money if they were genuine. I recall that <a href="/wiki/Tears_for_Fears" title="Tears for Fears">Tears for Fears</a>, who made a musical and artistic decision to pull out of the concert, were subsequently accused by Geldof of killing children in Africa—what a shockingly irresponsible and stupid attitude to take. But I have nothing bad whatsoever to say about Bob Geldof; he sacrificed his health, his career, [and] everything for something he believed in. But others around him got involved for their own reasons. Some of those involved in Northern Lights were actually quoted as saying that their managers told them to get down to the recording sessions because it would be a good career move!"<a href="#cite_note-Metal_Hammer-103">[103]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="International_broadcasting">International broadcasting</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Live_Aid&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: International broadcasting">edit</a>]</div> <table class="wikitable plainrowheaders"> <caption>Broadcasters </caption> <tbody><tr> <th scope="col">Country </th> <th scope="col">Broadcaster </th> <th scope="col">Channel(s) </th> <th scope="col"><abbr title="Broadcasting Time in Local Time">Time</abbr> </th> <th scope="col"><abbr title="References">Ref(s)</abbr> </th></tr> <tr> <th scope="row"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/23px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="12" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/35px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/46px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1280" data-file-height="640" /> Australia </th> <td><a href="/wiki/Australian_Broadcasting_Corporation" title="Australian Broadcasting Corporation">ABC</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/ABC_Television_(Australian_TV_network)" title="ABC Television (Australian TV network)">ABC-3</a> </td> <td>(July 13) 20:55 until end </td> <td><a href="#cite_note-Canberra-104">[104]</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/41/Flag_of_Austria.svg/23px-Flag_of_Austria.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="15" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/41/Flag_of_Austria.svg/35px-Flag_of_Austria.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/41/Flag_of_Austria.svg/45px-Flag_of_Austria.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="600" /> Austria </th> <td><a href="/wiki/ORF_(broadcaster)" title="ORF (broadcaster)">ORF</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/ORF_2" title="ORF 2">FS2</a> </td> <td>(July 13) 12:45<a href="/wiki/Central_European_Time" title="Central European Time">CET</a> until end </td> <td><a href="#cite_note-Fernsehen-105">[105]</a> </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="rowgroup" rowspan="2"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg/23px-Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="15" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg/35px-Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg/45px-Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="600" /> Belgium </th> <td><a href="/wiki/RTBF" title="RTBF">RTBF</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Tipik" class="mw-redirect" title="Tipik">Télé 2</a> </td> <td>(July 13) 12:50 <a href="/wiki/Central_European_Time" title="Central European Time">CET</a> until end </td> <td rowspan="2"><a href="#cite_note-Voorpost-106">[106]</a><a href="#cite_note-Limburgs-107">[107]</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/VRT_(broadcaster)" title="VRT (broadcaster)">BRT</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/BRT_TV2" class="mw-redirect" title="BRT TV2">BRT TV2</a> </td> <td>(July 13) 12:50 until end </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="rowgroup" rowspan="2"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d9/Flag_of_Canada_%28Pantone%29.svg/23px-Flag_of_Canada_%28Pantone%29.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="12" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d9/Flag_of_Canada_%28Pantone%29.svg/35px-Flag_of_Canada_%28Pantone%29.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d9/Flag_of_Canada_%28Pantone%29.svg/46px-Flag_of_Canada_%28Pantone%29.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1200" data-file-height="600" /> Canada </th> <td><a href="/wiki/CTV_Television_Network" title="CTV Television Network">CTV</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/CTV_Television_Network" title="CTV Television Network">CTV</a> </td> <td>(July 13) 20:00 -

Hence, the concert was never recorded in its complete original form, and only secondary television broadcasts were recorded. Following Geldof's request, ABC erased its own broadcast tapes.<a href="#cite_note-135">[135]</a> However, before the syndicated/ABC footage was erased, copies of it were donated to the <a href="/wiki/Smithsonian_Institution" title="Smithsonian Institution">Smithsonian Institution</a> and have now been presumed lost. The ABC feed of the USA for Africa/"We Are The World" finale does exist in its entirety, complete with the network end credits, and can be found as a supplemental feature on the We Are The World: The Story Behind The Song DVD. Meanwhile, MTV decided to keep recordings of its broadcast and eventually located more than 100 tapes of Live Aid in its archives, but many songs in these tapes were cut short by MTV's ad breaks and presenters (according to the BBC).<a href="#cite_note-136">[136]</a> Many performances from the US were not shown on the BBC, and recordings of these performances are missing. There were four separate Audio Trucks in Philadelphia provided by David Hewitt of Remote Recording Services. ABC had taken the decision that no multi track tape recordings would be allowed, so no remixing of the Philadelphia show was possible. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Official_Live_Aid_DVD">Official Live Aid DVD</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Live_Aid&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Official Live Aid DVD">edit</a>]</div> An official four-disc DVD set of the Live Aid concerts was released on 8 November 2004.

The DVD was produced by Geldof's company, Woodcharm Ltd., and distributed by <a href="/wiki/Warner_Music_Vision" title="Warner Music Vision">Warner Music Vision</a>. The DVD has since been <a href="/wiki/Out_of_print" title="Out of print">out of print</a> and is no longer available in stores. The decision to finally release it was taken by Bob Geldof nearly 20 years after the original concerts after he found a number of unlicensed copies of the concert on the Internet.<a href="#cite_note-140">[140]</a> The most complete footage that exists is used from the <a href="/wiki/BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a> source, and this was the main source of the DVD. During production of the official DVD, <a href="/wiki/MTV" title="MTV">MTV</a> lent Woodcharm Ltd. their B-roll and alternate camera footage where MTV provided extra footage of the Philadelphia concert (where ABC had erased the tapes from the command of Bob Geldof). Songs that were not originally interrupted with advertisements were also used on the official DVD. Working from the BBC and MTV footage, several degrees of dramatic licence were taken to release the concert on DVD. Many songs had their soundtracks altered for the DVD release, mainly in sequences where there were originally microphone problems. In one of those instances, Paul McCartney had re-recorded his failed vocals for "Let It Be" in a studio the day after the concert (14 July 1985). Beatles biographer Keith Badman explains, "because of what happened, he decided to re-record his vocals for any future film of the concert. That's the version you'll hear when the DVD comes out."<a href="#cite_note-141">[141]</a> Also, in the US finale, the original USA for Africa studio track for "We Are the World" was overlaid in places where the microphone was absent (consequently, it includes the vocals of <a href="/wiki/Kenny_Rogers" title="Kenny Rogers">Kenny Rogers</a> and <a href="/wiki/James_Ingram" title="James Ingram">James Ingram</a>, two artists who did not even take part in Live Aid).

Several artists who did feature on the DVD also had songs that were performed omitted. <a href="/wiki/Madonna" title="Madonna">Madonna</a> performed three solo songs in the concert, but only two were included on the DVD ("Love Makes the World Go Round" was omitted). Phil Collins played "Against All Odds" and "In the Air Tonight" at both Wembley and JFK, but only the London performance of the former and the Philadelphia performance of the latter were included on the DVD. The JFK performance of "Against All Odds" was later included in Collins' Finally ... The First Farewell Tour DVD. <a href="/wiki/Tom_Petty" title="Tom Petty">Tom Petty</a> performed four songs, and only two were included on DVD.
