Live8 - a major traffic inconvenience

I arrived home last night and my father asked if Hyde Park was on Regent's Street. It is. Tonight, at 7pm, Dad leaves for a shop on Regents St, and will arrive just in time to meet the crowds leaving the concert. I'll let you know how he says it goes.

In the meantime, we've already seen McCartney, U2, Dido, Youssou N'Dour, Coldplay, Richard Ashcroft, the Stereophonics, REM, and now Kofi Annan says "This is really the United Nations. The whole world has come together for the poor, on behalf of the poor and the week, I say thankyou." Nice to hear. July 8th will show whether it makes a bit of difference for those 8 guys it's in aid of. And it'll still make for poor traffic conditions either way.

"I'm just Miss Dynamight-y-eee". When are the Floyd on?!

Personally I'd be quite chuffed if the most well know musical acts in the world all held concerts to get my attention. Bush, Blair and the rest must feel so special right now.
