I believe Queen + Paul Rodgers are having a live link up as well.

I think the line up is shit, but I'll probably watch it. I ain't MOVING til Floyd have been on, then I'll take a bathroom break and wait for Purple.

Its actually not as bad as I thought it was. Motley Crue/Deep Purple/Velvet Revolver/Brian Wilson/PINK FLOYD/Jet/Paul McCarntney (to an extent. Beatles stuff always goes down well)

+ The bands that Matt White says will be announced at the last minute
+ Q+PR link up
+ There are a few people on there I can stand for 15-20 minutes (the ones with talent)

Neil Young was just added today - and it's also been confirmed that he will be the last performer of the evening.

Thank you for all the details, SR.
But don't complain too much about the London set, because it really looks as if the list for Paris was aimed at a fag audience...
It surely reflects what music has become here, with the hammering of radio stations, TV channels, advertising and major labels. It's worse than anywhere else...

She's Australia's answer to Celine Dion.
