Morning, everyone.
As some of you may know, I'm a newspaper reporter by day for the Morning Call of Allentown, Pa.
I've been tasked with writing tomorrow's cover story on the recently announced Live8 concert and I wanted
to turn to the most musically knowledgable (and opinionated!) folks I know for help.

To wit, I have three questions:

1. Where were you when the original concert went down? What are your most pronounced memories of the day?
Stand-outs? Flop performances? Anything at all will do.

2. Age now/age then. Current location/occupation/family situation

3. Do you think the new iteration can ever live up to the legacy of the first show? Should it?

Reply off-list to jlmicek@comcast.net by 5 p.m. EDT if'n you're interested.

Best, and thanks in advance for the help.

John.
