Sinopse

30 years ago, Irish-native, Bob Geldof, and Scottman, Midge Ure, transfixed the world with the dual-venue concert, Live Aid, held on July 13, 1985 to raise funds for relief of the ongoing Ethiopian famine. Billed as the "global jukebox", the event was held simultaneously at Wembley Stadium in London, England and John F. Kenney Stadium in Philidelphia. It was one of the largest-scale satellite link-ups and television broadcasts of all time with an estimated global audience of 1.9 billion, across 150 nations. Tonight, Mike and Tim remember Live-Aid featuring music by Luka Bloom, Bob Geldof, The Police, and Elvis Costello as well as music from Mundy, Natalie Mcmaster, Bryan Ferry, Tupelo, Rig the Jig, We Banjo 3, and Horslips with a special tribute to birthday boy, Michael Flatley featuring music from Davy Spillane and Eileen Ivers. Join Mike and Tim each Wednesday night from 8pm to 9pm on WSBC 1240AM or WCFJ 1470AM or listen to their podcast at www.windycityirishradio.com.
