Now Elton John enters the stage ... the introduction was meant to be humorous, but I can't find anything funny about a (fake) handicapped person trying to urinate on stage ... ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

Don't forget to sign the petition bad quality through the stream, I don't have broadband, maybe that affects the quality negatively. Did I ever mentioned I am a big Elton John fan ------------- I'm always almost unlucky _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Id5ZcnjXSZaSMFMC Id5LM2q2jfqz3YxT |

Switched to Berlin - Audioslave are cool! Edit: I have broadband, but the audio quality is not great. I'd say like 56k mp3. Edit: Audioslave sounding dreadfully out of tune during Like A Stone. Maybe it's the stream combined with the stereo rotating effect of the guitars? ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

Is there a program available, where I can see which bands play where, and how late?
Just watched Bill Gates He said generosity was needed ------------- I'm always almost unlucky _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Id5ZcnjXSZaSMFMC Id5LM2q2jfqz3YxT |

It may be different in each country, but on my web page there's a link to a schedule right beneath the WMP window. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

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.

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. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

Wow,all hugs and kisses too............... You never know! Truly emotional to see them all together even if Gilmour does look like someone's psychotic grandad.. |

On AOL.com I could switch between locations (Berlin, Paris, Philadelphia, London) anytime, and there weren't any commercials. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

Christ! I thought Velvet Revolver were ATROCIOUS!! My son is a big fan and he too was appalled by their amateurish performance. The Who were good, so were Muse. 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. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:
