That "John Locke" is one of the coolest rock and roll men ever to come out of Australia BTW.
Not really blown away by anything I've seen so far.

would be nice if they would show full sets, rather than jumping around ... I guess we won't be seeing Snoop Dogg's set from Hamburg

Is there anywhere online where these concerts will be able to be downloaded or streamed afterwards? I'd love to see some complete sets, including David Gray and Damien Rice.
I want to see Garth Brooks performing as well.

I wonder how much CO2 it took to create those accessories that Snoop is sporting. Day-um! 
90% of the Germans in that stadium probably have no clue what he is saying

I've been checking in every few and so far Snoop is the only one who's not boring. But I have to say that the bleeping of his songs it seriously fucking them up. 
I like his drummer's set. The pattern on the shells is that of blue Crip rags. Crip Cuuuuzz!!! Snoop is faithful to his set.

Well, just got up in the last half hour and I see that Sundance and Bravo are doing their own thing. Looks like Bravo is concentrating on the upcoming New York portion of the concert (is that Duff I see hosting? Used to have a huge crush on her, and glad to see she's still with us) while Sundance is taking a hostless approach bouncing from venue to venue (seems like the "live" in "Live Earth" is going to be a misnomer til New York starts).
So I guess I'll try and keep up with both channels and sit sometime this week and transfer (for my own personal collection, of corse) the concert portions from my VHS T-160's to DVD+R's.

So does anyone know about how many songs each act are doing? It seems like in London, they sing a few songs, and return later for more (Duran Duran and BEP). Of course, this could just be CTV moving things around and not clearly stating it.

*Sigh* So how many Space Bags has everyone ordered? The same five commercials over and over are getting kind of very annoying. If at least they were in HD... There should be a law against SD commercials on HD channels...

I don't know, but I'm almost sold on those mega-absorbing rags
Boy, did they have to work hard to censor Snoop. I listed live on XM (unedited) and figured UHD wouldn't show it.
Hope a HD-DHD set of this gets released ..

I've skimmed through 10 hours of HD so far and watched two full songs. And I've avoided every single non-musical part of the telecast. At least that last part is considered a success.
