I finally got to watch it live on AOL (a miracle with my connection!). And that was good because on Spanish TV when they finally showed it the skipped the HAND bit as well
HAND is online and has been for a long time:

Oh, thanks for the link. I did watch it live on AOL but I was looking forward to watching it on TV with better quality

I'm not a Coldplay fan, but their performance was really cool! Loved Velvet Revolver and Green Day was really awesome!! Kaiser Chiefs were cool as well.

did anyone notice posh spice? shes so plastic her face never moves does it? silly cow
I like Coldplay a lot, I thought they were very good although it'd have been better to end their set with Speed of Sound to get the crowd more excited.
U2, imo, were brilliant (well, I love U2 so I can't really say anything different, lol) and Stereophonics, fantastic. Madonna was cool too. I like Robbie because he knows how to work such a big crowd but didn't believe his performance was the best yesterday, seen him much better before.

Does anyone know where I can watch Bryan Adams set? I don't see the Canada one in aol.

I thought that was so weird as well. Jon usually talks a lot, and I expected him to encourage people and politicians to get involved just like the other singers. He seemed to be in a bad mood or something
You know, after watching it again I think I read more into it than what was there. He seemed fine after all. I suppose he could have figured that everyone knows why they are there, so what is the point in preaching some more.

I thought Robbie was really good, and I am not even a huge fan of him. Don't know why people are so annoyed at him for prancing around. I thought that was part of his act. He added something different to the night.

Madonna can't sing. She really needs to give it up already. Her live performance was full of her being off tune and her voice cracking. It was painful to watch.

I thought Coldplay playing with Ashcroft was brilliant! Love that song and a good performance. Chris is a bit too girly for my taste, but they do have talent.

Velvet Revolver Rocked!! Awesome performance. I thought Axl might show up to do a duet with them.

Def Leppard, another one whose voice has gone to crap.

U2 was awesome as usual, and I even thought Green Day did a good job.

AOL pulled through on this one. Suprising!!

I expected worse of Madonna though.

Dido on the other hand really scared me. The girl really can't sing. Thank goodness Yossou Ndour saved Thank You a bit

I didn't see anything wrong with Jon. He didn't look bored at all. I also kept reading that the shows were running behind schedule, so since they were one of the first acts on stage in Philly, maybe they were asked to shorten the set from 4 to 3 songs.

Too bad no one asked Linkin Park and Jay z to shorten their set. :P I thought I liked LP. They sounded like crap live. I agree that Madonna sounded bad too. She might sound better if she would stand still and focus on singing and not on dancing. Green Day should be beaten for murdering a Queen song. It takes courage to try to sing one of their songs, but they fell miserably short of the task. I'm surprised Kanye West's entourage fit on the stage with him and his ego. Sarah McLachlan and Josh Groban sounded incredible together. It was very cool to see Pink Floyd.

I didn't know Green day had preformance. Where what songs did they play? I didn't saw it . I think that Bon jovi were ok. I also liked the preformance of Bryan Adams. Robbie was great, he can make great atmosphere. I agree all that you said about Madonna. I don't have nothing against her, but everybody present her like some kind of diva. She has some great songs, but that's it, in my eyes she isn't any better singer than Chris Martin. Coldplay & Richard Ashcroft were great with Bitter Sweet Symphony. It was great to see Pink Floyd together again. REM were just fantastic Don't know why, but I didn't like the preformance of Linkin park, Dido, Duran Duran.

I haven't catched any footage by him. What did he play?

Is there a page where all the sets are listed?
