I can’t believe 40 years have passed so quickly! I reminisce about this amazing day. youtu.be/QBnc5566MLY?...
#LiveAidAt40 #LiveAid
Please always remember that everyone working on #LiveAid was a volunteer (even if some felt their arms were twisted a bit by Bob’s absolute commitment) and Bob made every effort to ensure that the money they raised would go to feeding starving people. #LiveAidAt40
Chrissie Hynde and The Pretenders ask you to please stop all of your sobbing, another great song by primo lyricist Dave Davies. #LiveAidAt40 #LiveAid #Songoftheday youtu.be/KCwwod4v1R8?...
Of course, that one’s pretty famous. But have you heard Led Zep and Phil Collins? Lord have mercy. #LiveAidAt40 #LiveAid #Songoftheday

This epic performance by Bono and U2, my heart. #LiveAidAt40 #LiveAid #Songoftheday

My Sunday #LiveAidAt40 posts only included videos from the London concert, a lapse I intend to correct today. Again, not every performance will be posted, just my own sentimental favorites.
First and foremost, Tina Turner and Mick Jagger! #LiveAid #Songoftheday

My friends please share my #LiveAidAt40 hashtag and all the goodies I posted. Heaven knows we need a little celebration, even as Sir Bob contemplates FOTUS’ destruction of everything he worked for. @alexsavedtheday.bsky.social @ltuhura.bsky.social
40 years ago today, Bob Geldof and Midge Ure (and a ton of other people) made musical history with the sole aim of feeding people who were starving. Well done, Sir Bob! #LiveAidAt40 #LiveAid
Please enjoy the various videos I have shared today, and know that it’s still possible to do good.
On this day on July 13th, 1985, Queen rocked Live Aid and became one of the greatest and the most iconic performances of all time! Happy 40th anniversary to Live Aid! #LiveAid40 #liveaidat40
#LiveAidAt40 Fun fact: Sir Bob Geldof’s paternal grandmother was Jewish, which by matrilinearity makes his father Jewish, which doesn’t make him Jewish unless you hold by patrilinear descent (which I don’t, but you 100% do not want to know the thought that crept unbidden into my mind just now).
When you watch these videos, please remember that all of these people, the musicians, the staff, the tech people, the videographers, everyone involved *volunteered* and they showed up and they did the thing! #LiveAidAt40
OK, that was meant to be the end of that thread, but I cannot possibly leave you without a song from David Bowie, masseur to the stars: #LiveAidAt40

And it was a wicked hot day in London, and Bob’s back was giving him trouble. So just before the Rats’ set, he ran into David Bowie backstage, and David gave him a backrub. Now watch Bob make his entrance moments later: #LiveAidAt40 youtu.be/FcZW0GFLSdw?...
If you want to get the full experience, there’s a series on YouTube of which this is the first: #LiveAidAt40

Queen at Live Aid was one of music's finest moments and you can't change my mind.
#liveaidat40
My completely irrational affection for Spandau Ballet is infamous among my friends. I once named a statistics wiki after this song (yes, I did): #LiveAidAt40

Not necessarily the thing everyone thinks of first when recalling Queen’s outstanding performance at Live Aid in 1985, but I just love seeing Freddie and Bri rock out in this: #LiveAidAt40

Screenshot of a search result stating, "Queen had a 21-minute set during Live Aid on 13 July 1985, which began at 6:41pm." Below is a Wikipedia search result titled "Queen's performance at Live Aid - Wikipedia".

May, on the right, wears a white shirt and dark pants, playing an electric guitar. A microphone hangs above them. A shadow resembling the continent of Africa is visible in the background.
It has officially been 40 years to the minute since Queen played Live Aid 🎸
