For those that don't know, Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor joined up with Dave Stewart to put together a concert in South Africa to raise awareness of the horrible AIDS situation in Africa. A concert was originally to have gone on many many months ago but sponsorship deals fell through. But Queen and Stewart commited themselves to helping out and the "Concert for Staying Alive" is being held TODAY, Nov. 29th.

I believe you *should* be able to check the show at the web site, www.46664.com.

Performers include Bono and The Edge, Beyonce, Queen and more.

A CD and DVD will be released, the CD containing brand new songs (3 by Queen!!!!) and the DVD will be of the concert. Not sure of the exact release dates for those two but either 46664.com or www.queenonline.com should mention it.

Also, an edited version of the concert will be broadcast in America on world AIDS day, Dec. 1st. MTV will air it at 6pm eastern and VH1 will air it at 10pm eastern.

All the money raised from the CD and DVD sales will go towards fighting AIDS in Africa.
