To be honest he seems quite tired and a little strung out from Live8. Rather than comment on the privisation of africa, he licked my camera.
He did do a little endorsement for independent media however which is nice.

front page of every newspaper. A story that ran for weeks. How many
people do you think even knew what G8 was before live8? If the concert
only converted 1 person, well that's one more person joining your ranks
right? One more person trying to make a difference. Geldolf is not
stupid. He is playing the game as much as the politicians and celebs are
- he is using them as much as they are using him. come on lets work together for a change!

Quit the bashing

He is not perfect, nor are any of us, yet how many people sit on their lazy arses and throw comments and attitude towards those who do try to make a difference.
He has a public image and he can really use it to make a difference. He is trying to help and raise awareness and money and I think that is always a good thing. It is also about educating the majority of people who only get passionate about issues such as the cable TV being out, or no hot water for their shower for a hour due to technical difficulties. He opens peoples minds and evey to what is going on in the world.
You can not compare what goes on in Africa and Iraq.
You can not say he is taking attention away from one in order to divert the public.
All he is doing is trying to help a situation that has been going on and on for way too long, and will probably continue to.
If someone did a concert like this for Breast Cancer or Aids or a concert against domestic abuse would everyone bash them for that too??

bill gates - a mistake. we all make them.
i think he's giving a rye sign of respect to the next generation - maybe he's getting off on the independant thought sprung from his event. live 8 was to promote discussion and it's helping his cause to find fault or favour with it.
after all, anything that keeps us talking around the issues, no?

when the very Make Poverty History mainstream charities he was working with issue statements of outrage and sadness at G8 announcements and Bob Geldof's sycophancy,
when he condems tactics he knows little about to perpetuate the state's agenda of good and bad protestors,
when in tabloids the concert was covered in much detail about the acts but the self-same papers made zero mention of the march that day, when one person converted means nothing in the face of the death and destruction going on on this planet due to our consumption, to Blair's pushing of privatised IMF solutions in poor countries (with Geldof's left hand somewhere warm; right hand is reserved for Bill Gates), when Geldof abuses his powerful position with his ignorance and prejudices, when we were saddened by what he said after having liked his music all those years ago,
do you still wonder why people criticise him.
