Emotional stuff!
By Big Nige from Blackpool , 02 Jul 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
A fairly diverse set of tastes and styles, so this won't have you gripped throught the whole 3 hours, but there are some excellent highlights. I mainly wanted to see more of the Jimmy Page / Robert Plant set that was shown on TV (which is fabulous!), but equally enjoyed Bruce Springsteen's acoustic songs (as always). Even the artists who are not really to my taste perform well (Tracy Chapman for example) - Alanis is on top form also and Gabriel pops up all over the place as ever! Sting must have been on holiday? There's a feeling of happiness & joy throughout the set considering the nature of the gig, with nearly all the artists in high spirits. However, there are quite a few 'speeches' & animated reminders of why the gig was put together, which would get tedious after the first view, but I suppose they need to be there to serve the intended purpose. This was better than I expected it to be.- Was this review helpful to you?

Watchable but nothing special
By Daniel Carl from Kilmarnock, Scotland , 22 Apr 2004Most people watching this will have segments and artists they prefer over others so its never going to be a great concert to watch.
The part that stood out most for me was when the Dali Lama spoke and you could hear a pin drop.
PEACE! Y- Was this review helpful to you?
