It's hard to believe that it's 24 years since the Live Aid concerts in Wembley and Philadelphia. It was one of those moments in history where everyone remembers where they were. I was sat at home on the couch for the whole 13 hours with my friend Paul, whose birthday it was (and still is!). Pretty much every major star of the time played at one the two venues.
When you ask people about their favourite moments Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is one of the first things they talk about. Here's the performance on the day.
One artist made an extra bit of history that day by becoming the first person to play at concerts on both sides of the Atlantic on the same day! Here's the piece they did with Phil Collins while he was on Concorde flying to Philadelphia....
The will was there but technology wasn't!!
I hope this brings back happy memories for you.
