Live Earth - Wrapup!

July 7th, 2007

Whew. That was a doozie! The show just ended a few moments ago with a stellar performance from The Police!

Wow, I am so happy that they played I Can’t Stand Losing You - an unexpected surprise that wasn’t listed in their set! I am pleased.

For their final song, Sting called out John Mayer to play with the band. For the record, I CANNOT hear Message In A Bottle without picturing/thinking about Guitar Hero 2. I also wonder how amazing John Mayer would be at GH2? He’s a pretty incredible guitar player! Oh, and Kanye West came out too, to perform a little interlude during the song.

So, what did you think? Did the concerts rock your socks? Whose performance was your favourite?

Justin also mentioned to me earlier a few impressive facts about MuchMusic’s involvement in today’s event - like the fact that all energy we used at MuchMusic HQ was green energy from Bullfrog Energy. And the bottled water we drank all day was in cornstarch containers that will actually biodegrade. And we tried to ‘re-use’ containers throughout the day - we were provided with Live Earth water flasks that we could refill ourselves.

I know a lot of the artists that were interviewed today at the various shows talked about how to get involved, and how they’re trying to make a difference in slowing down the earth’s decay…but what are YOU doing?

PS: Here are some of my favourite pics from all over the globe!

I love this one of Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters, totally rocking out with every cell in his body:
