Title: iClips to broadcast SA concert! Post by Shannon on Nov 28th, 2007, 10:14am http://www.iclips.net/content.php?content_id=1541 12:00 - Tuesday , 11/06/2007 46664 WORLD AIDS DAY CONCERT 1 DECEMBER 2007, ELLIS PARK STADIUM, JOHANNESBURG, S.A. The forthcoming 46664 World Aids Day concert, to be hosted at Ellis Park on December 1, is the fifth 46664 event staged at points across the world since the founding in 2002 of the HIV AIDS charity which carries Nelson Mandela's prison number and has been made possible throught the support of Joburg City. An announcement earlier this month brought news of global support for the event from a host of international artists including Peter Gabriel, Annie Lennox, Corinne Bailey Rae, Razorlight, Ludacris, Goo Goo Dolls and Jamelia. World artist Angelique Kidjo made a well-remembered appearance at the first 46664 concert back in 2003 and has since taken on the role of international ambassador to the charity. She will be returning for this year's concert. Says Angelique: "I visited Robben Island just before the first 46664 concert and I understood that Nelson Mandela could not have spent all these years standing up for his continent just to let it be hurt by a disease that can be prevented and treated if there is a strong political will. That's the message we will be sending this time: we will not forget about this until change is made!" The South African bands and artists being announced between them account for millions of record sales each year and in their diversity reach out across the entire mixed population of the country. "The 46664 message is one that needs to be heard in every corner of our country, and indeed, the world. These artists between them reach into every one of our communities - upholding Mr. Mandela's message that HIV AIDS is not a local issue, but a universal one," said a spokesman for 46664. The artists range from such seasoned South African performers as Johnny Clegg, the Soweto Gospel Choir, Just Jinjer, and rocker Arno Carstens to hot new acts such as rock bands The Parlotones and Cassette, and R & B female trio Jamali. Other confirmed South African artists include Danny K, Goldfish, Jozi, Louise Carver, Loyiso, Malaika, Prime Circle, and Vusi Mahlasela. As well as performing their own sets, some of the artists are expected to be seen in collaborations with visiting artists.

Title: Re: iClips to broadcast SA concert! Post by nmf009 on Nov 28th, 2007, 4:31pm The concert is due to run from 2pm to 11pm in South Africa, which is 7 hours ahead of East Coast time, meaning for EST, the concert will be from 7am to 4pm Saturday. There doesn't seem to be a schedule posted, so I have no idea when the Goos might take the stage. Edit: The iClips site looks like it will put up the entire performance afterwards. All of the festival type shows on there appear to have the full sets of the performers. Yay for not having to wake up at 7am. |

Title: Re: iClips to broadcast SA concert! Post by nmf009 on Dec 1st, 2007, 12:43pm Live singing Overcome with a woman I do not know the name of was very good. I enjoyed it alot. Everyone seems to be in really good spirits and it seems like no one's egos are in the way of the cause. I'm enjoying this more than any other big benefit festival that I've seen. And wireimage has started putting up photos, but as I type this, there is no Goo yet. Click me (http://www.wireimage.com/GalleryListing.asp?navtyp=gls====297398&nbc1=1) |

Title: Re: iClips to broadcast SA concert! Post by nmf009 on Dec 1st, 2007, 3:05pm Assuming they play Iris next, I correctly guessed the songs they would play. �I don't know how I feel about that... It must be cool to have that many people on the other side of the world know your songs.

Title: Re: iClips to broadcast SA concert! Post by nmf009 on Dec 1st, 2007, 10:47pm Points of interest now that I've actually watched the whole thing: 1. I hate watching Iris being performed now. I don't mind the audience participation thing at regular concerts, because I always figured the high notes were a little rough for him and if it saved his voice, then by all means... but right after he makes the audience sing the whole chorus he does the "Yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" thing (this particular concert had an OBSCENELY long one), which blows my theory out of the water. He used to drop the chorus down, which isn't as cool as the original version, but it's looking like a damn good option to me these days... 2. Both John and Robby without shoes amused me. Whenever John doesn't wear shoes I always think that Robby was like "Don't wear shoes with me tonight" right before they go on. :D 3. John tackling/hugging Robby at the end was cute. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/crookedrhyme/goo/46664robjohn1.png http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/crookedrhyme/goo/46664robjohn2.png |
