Bob Geldof to re-release Band Aid. Again.
|
|
Plans are under way to pull together a host of music stars to create the fourth incarnation of the Band Aid charity single.
The men behind Do They Know It's Christmas are expected to announce the line-up on Monday for Band Aid 30.
Bob Geldof and Midge Ure first gathered a group of musicians together in 1984, raising £8m for famine relief in Ethiopia.
Do They Know It's Christmas was recorded again in 1989 and 2004.
Geldof and Ure will be hoping to gather some of today's most popular music acts including One Direction, Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith.
It is thought the money raised will go towards the fight against Ebola in West Africa.

Best free advert for music stars ever, make sure you give these rich people your money and don't question where it goes.

"The Boomtown Rats will release a new compilation of classic Rats tracks on October 13th 2014. The album, entitled So Modern: The Boomtown Rats Collection, mixes some of the bands biggest hits including the number 1 smashes I Don't Like Mondays and Rat Trap with some of the bands deeper album tracks and is a fantastic introduction to a group with an incredible legacy."

I find all this self congratulation, and self agrandissement nauseating, and Geldof is an arrogant, sanctimonious cunt with no talent..

So who gets to sing
SO TONIGHT THANK GOD IT'S THEM, INSTEAD OF YOU.
I seem to remember in the original there was supposedly an argument about who got to sing that line. Or did I imagine that story?

There was. They allocated the line to Justin Hawkins and Bono kicked up a huge childish fuss over it so they just let him do it.
Geldof should have told him to do one, but then again that pair of cunts are probably right up each other's sanctimonious arseholes.
