Live 8 - Dig it!

What is Live 8? The short version: a whole lot of simultaneous consciousness-raising rock-and-roll shows, going on in 10 (I think) cities around the world. Once again - is it just a 1985 nostalgia trip? - Philly has gotten the nod as the only US venue. It will all be happening right outside our soon-to-be-ex front steps in the city's lovely Fairmount section, on the famous Art Museum steps. This time, it's about making people aware of the massive Third World Debt relief campaign that is gathering steam in advance of next week's G-8 summit in Scotland. If you have a chance, visit the One campaign site, and see what they are talking about.

And rock on!
