Apart from Floyd, the African gig at Eden Camp had most of the best music - Youssou N'Dur is a God!!.

Only Audioslave were even worse.I haven't seen Velvet Revolver, but I saw Audioslave and they were so horrible that I cannot think that anything could be worse than that. It's sad ... maybe they had PA problems and couldn't hear themselves properly. Their records are awesome though.

On AOL.com I could switch between locations (Berlin, Paris, Philadelphia, London) anytime, and there weren't any commercials.

I watched from Finnish channel TV2 and there weren't any commercials. Couldn't switch the locations tho.

They were all smiles. Fantastic performance. I'm still digesting the greatness of all of this.

You never know!

Truly emotional to see them all together even if Gilmour does look like someone's psychotic grandad..

I don't know...I saw an evil glare or two from Nick Mason.

Agreed. Notice the lyrics ... Every vow you break - WE'll be watching you, and the screens show the G8 politicians ... GREAT. Sting is definitely a highlight ... great musicians, great vibe.

Joss Stone was fantastic,what a voice and what a performance from a teenager!

Velvet Revolver,good.

Sting playing The Police,great songs.Have grown to like him again ever since he dug Bart from out of that well........

Every Breath You Take= Great pop song.
