On some days, I felt like a character in Waiting for Godot or Groundhog Day: nothing really essential ever happens, so why get out of bed at all? On some days, it felt as if an asteroid or the Whore of Babylon were going to hurl itself from the sky and kill everyone on the planet – and only Bruce Willis can save us. Some days were hits; some days were misses. Life… music… art… can anybody tell the difference?

Now, 20 years later, Sir Bob Geldof is again putting music artists together and the goals are even more ambitious, more encompassing.

"This is not Live Aid 2," says Geldof. "These concerts are the starting point for The Long Walk to Justice, the one way we can make all our voices heard in unison."
