Lithium Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Yeah, that's great.Metallica has just started playing here, hope they'll play some old stuff, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Yell Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Metallica only played Black Album songs.Al Gore's in New York, and he said "Now, a duet you will never forget!"When Keith Urban started playing "Gimme Shelter," I naturally assumed it would be Mick Jagger, but hell no, it was Alicia Keys or something!

gunsguy Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I see a bunch of bands claiming to help the world, I do not believe the shit about climate change, it is a money maker, same goes with the ozone layer in the 90's different name same shit, I see a bunch of artists who live in excess and perform concerts all over the world with major electrical charges, ya they got there:gas guzzler cars and trucks, vansPlanes, concert lights sound equipment,food wasted at gigs, garbage, etc etcmansions...it just makes me think these guys are so fake in every cause they try to support, thank god no bands I like are involved...climate change = more money for governments, economy, hink about it it is the same as war = money...wonder what the years after 2010 will be,,, they will have a new title for this bullshit cause..Gunsguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBear Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I find that a tad bit senseless of them to say though- if the concert is going to be on anyway, why not be a part of it and showcase their care for the cause.Yeah, and why doesnt vegitarians eat meat? The animal is already slaughtered?I've always asked this question myself. I don't want to rant, but vegetarians can't save animals by not eating them. They're dead already.Not sure if you guys are kidding or what.Less people eating meat = less demand for meatLess demand for meat = less animals get killedYes, when a hamburger sits on the plate in front of you it's already dead. But if a bunch of people don't order a hamburger, over time, the industry will have to produce less hamburger meat.If everyone stopped eating meat then zero cows would get slaughtered.This is basic Economics.For the record, I am not a vegetarian, though I do try to cut back on meat at times. You don't need to eat meat every meal, it's probably not the best diet anyhow. I'm not against eating animals per se (obviously), what I am against are cruel farming practices.Anyways, I sort of agree with GG being cynical of this event. Not that I don't believe in climate change, though I am definitely suspicious. I mean, back when Hurricane Katrina hit it was the worst hurricane season in decades. The environmental movement was very alarmist, yelling that this was proof of climate change, etc. But what about the worst hurricane season before that, back in like the '60s? Was that climate change then too? There are many examples like this one because weather patterns are never constant. They always change, and who's to say that the pattern we are in right now wouldn't have happened anyways?That said, of course we should try to be as green as we can. I do simple things, recycling, buying merchandise that is green (natural laundry detergent for example, free of all the chemicals they put into mass market brands - and then that enters your skin when you wear your clothes!).Tell you what is damaging the Earth most though, it's the fact that there are waaaaaaay too many people on it. The human population is out of control. We are taking land from wildlife and it's not cool. The more people on this planet the more we suck from it and the more pollution we cause. I am a lot more passionate about this than I am Live Earth, not for anything like climate change (that's pretty selfish, we only care when we think it's a threat to us), but for the wildlife that we have absolutely no regard for. The two causes definitely overlap, but I see it from a completely different angle.Anyways, JMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDRM Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I was watching Metallica on BBC1, but they only showed the first two songs, and then afterwards showed Crowded House - pathetic. The stream hardly works here.Just so everyone knows.. if you press the red button you can see all the songs they didnt show on bbc.I cant BELIEVE they cut spinal tap short by two songs! Get your shit together bbc!STONEHENGEEE!Pussycat Dolls get a higher billing than Metallica.sad...but trueBrilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
