The Wannabe stars hoped to reform the band for the gig and perform together for the first time since 1998, when Halliwell quit the group. But Geldof has ended weeks of speculation about whether the pop fivesome are being reconsidered for the historic event, by confirming they have been dropped from the line-up, because they have lost their huge fanbase. He explains: "I can't afford to have bands who won't pull the crowds. This is a political event, not a cultural one. "If I get people who are currently selling 15 million albums, then there's an audience of at least 15 million people for the concert. It's a question of who is popular right now; that's the way it is. "The whole thing with the Spice Girls isn't about my personal taste - my kids sing their stuff. But there just aren't enough people out there who would want to watch them."

The Spice Up Your Life stars - Melanie Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown and Emma Bunton - are set to reform to play alongside acts including Paul McCartney, Mariah Carey and Elton John at the Hyde Park concert on July 2. Despite reports earlier this week that the girl group had been axed from the event, singer Brown has confirmed they are all keen to play and revealed plans for a Greatest Hits release to coincide with the historic event. Scary Spice says: "We'll get back together because we all want to. I know everyone is up for it. "There is going to be a Greatest Hits Album and we've got loads of new songs that nobody has heard yet." The girls are also reportedly planning to release a new single penned by song- writer Richard Stannard, who was responsible for several of their hits - including their debut chart-topper Wannabe. A reunion would be the first time the full five-piece has performed since 1998.
  • http://breakingnews.iol.ie/entertainment/story.asp?j=76985656&p=76986x3x&n=7 6986127 'Change the world' call by Geldof 06/06/2005 - 09:18:39 Live 8 organiser Bob Geldof appealed to people to help "tilt this world a little bit on its side" as he launched a lottery for the star-studded concert today. The event in London's Hyde Park - featuring Madonna, Robbie Williams and Paul McCartney - will draw attention to poverty and debt in the developing world. Members of the public can win a pair of the 150,000 tickets available by texting the answer to a straightforward question. Today Geldof appealed to the country to take part and help to bring an end to the spectre of "children dying on our television screens". Appearing on GMTV, he said: "This country can maybe stop that. It's too great an opportunity to miss and I think we are going to do it." He said it would be a chance for people to feel they were "changing the world a little bit" and for the whole country to feel it was "doing something together". "We have gone on this long journey together over 20 years," he said. "It is finally going to pitch up against the doors of the leaders of the world's richest countries at the beginning of July. "Honestly, what we can maybe do is just change this world for the better." Geldof said people should not despair if they do not win tickets as there are plans to screen the July 2 event live at parks across the country. Asked about rumours of a Spice Girls reunion for the concert, he said he had spoken to band member Geri Halliwell last night, and they were "trying really hard" to do it. "There is a great willingness but they have a past. With divorced couples, it takes years to be friends again." Asked about suggestions that the event would not make a difference, he said: "I genuinely think it is doing, otherwise I wouldn't bother." Geldof appealed to people to text for tickets, saying: "Please get on your texts. Go for it! We will, I promise you, tilt this world a little bit on its side."

The Corrs do a tremendous amount of charity work. Sharon is going to be at the Nelson Mandela 46664 Arctic concert in the next couple weeks. They were personally asked by Nelson Mandela to play at the first 46664 event. And she and her husband support the Township Challenge that sends Irish builders to South Africa to build homes for the locals - and her husband, an Irish lawyer, actually worked on the homes. They did a charity concert that raised over 100,000 pounds to put a research wing on the hospital that treated their late mother for a rare lung disease. Compare to them, the Spice Girls are a joke. The Corrs have sold 45 million albums worldwide - including a hit in the US with "Breathless" and are the second biggest Irish band after U2. And they write their own songs, play their own instruments, and their stuff you can actually listen to and understand the words, mixing pop rock and Irish traditional.

The WANNABE stars - GERI HALLIWELL, VICTORIA BECKHAM, MELANIE CHISHOLM, MELANIE BROWN and EMMA BUNTON - hoped to reform the band and perform together for the first time since 1998, when Halliwell quit the group. But bosses for TV giant the BBC - which is broadcasting the event - snubbed the fivesome, insisting the pop act is too trivial for the historic event, which aims to persuade politicians to cancel Third World debt, double the aid budget and rewrite global trade laws so developing countries can protect their economies. The corporation also claimed there wouldn't be enough time for the Spice Girls to perform at the show, because 16 major acts, including SIR PAUL McCARTNEY, STING and U2 have already agreed to sing at the London leg of the July (05) event in the capital's Hyde Park. But the co-organiser of the concert, SIR BOB GELDOF says the Spice Girls will perform at the event, if they manage to overcome their differences. He says, "I spoke to them this morning and it's looking very good. "There's a lot of stuff they have got to sort through. They are trying to resolve differences of many years."

They want celebs like U2, Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand etc. who live in mansions and whine about poverty. Personally I'm getting kind of pissed off with these rich tossers, telling the rest of the world to worry about poverty. How about the next time Bono makes a transatlantic flight, he sits in economy and gives the 2 grand saved to charity. Or he sells one of his 4 American properties and gives the proceeds - quietly - to a proper aid charity. The fact is these people have made millions through capitalism. They have no intention of abandoning their rock star lifestyle, no matter how many lives they could save. So to listen to them whining about "poverty" really does my head in.

Two decades after he masterminded Live Aid, the largest charity concert ever mounted, to fight famine in Africa, the 58-year-old singer-activist has announced an encore. On Tuesday, Geldof unveiled a Live Aid sequel, dubbed Live 8, that aims to be bigger than the original and will feature a who's-who of the top music acts in the world, including Paul McCartney, U2, the Rolling Stones, Madonna and a reunited Pink Floyd, participating in a series of mega-concerts. The free gigs will be staged July 2 in London, Paris, Berlin, Philadelphia and Rome and simulcast on television and the Internet. At a news conference, Geldof stated that the goal this time around will be to raise awareness of poverty in Third World countries, particularly in African nations, ahead of the annual G8 meeting in Britain attended by the leaders of the world's most powerful industrial nations, among them President George W. Bush. "We don't want people's money. We want them," the Irish popster told a news conference Tuesday, adding that the July 6-8 G8 summit offered a "unique opportunity for Britain to do something unparalleled in the world...to tilt the world a little bit on its axis in favor of the poor." Coldplay, R.E.M., Mariah Carey and the Cure are among those performing with McCartney, Madonna and U2 in London; Dave Matthews Band, Bon Jovi, Stevie Wonder, Sarah McLachlan, Will Smith, Jay-Z and P. Diddy will take the stage in Philadelphia; Jamiroquai, Placebo, Andrea Bocelli and Youssou N'Dour are among the headliners in Paris; Lauryn Hill, Brian Wilson, A-ha and Crosby, Stills and Nash will lead the Berlin bill; and Duran Duran, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw will command the stage in Rome. Meanwhile, several other A-list acts, including Pink Floyd, the Rolling Stones, Usher, Snoop Dogg and Destiny's Child, have signed on to perform, but there's no immediate word on where they'll be playing. Speculation of a pending Spice Girls reunion was quickly squashed by Victoria Beckham's publicist--not that the Girl Power group would have been welcomed. According to an account in London's Daily Mirror, Live 8 organizers rejected the quintet out of concern its inclusion might undercut the seriousness of the event. The original Live Aid, held simultaneously in 1985 at London's Wembley Stadium and Philadelphia's RFK Stadium, featured an all-star lineup led by McCartney, David Bowie, Queen, Duran Duran, U2, Bob Dylan and Led Zeppelin. Geldof says Live 8 should exceed its predecessor in terms of viewership--it will be beamed worldwide to more than 2 billion people over various cable and satellite channels. AOL will carry the shows live on the Internet. Tickets for the London event, which will take place at Hyde Park, will be given out via a lottery on June 6. Tickets for the other venues--Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, Philly's Museum of Art, Rome's Circus Maximus, and a venue in Paris to be announced--will be distributed via a similar lottery system. Live 8 organizers hope the massive turnout will help pressure G8 leaders to take immediate action to forgive Third World debt and establish programs to eradicate poverty and injustice in developing countries. Organizers are also hoping to stage concerts in the three other G8 countries: Canada, Russia and Japan. Here's a complete rundown of the acts and venues confirmed thus far. LONDON: Mariah Carey, Coldplay, Dido, Keane, Elton John, Annie Lennox, Paul McCartney, Muse, Razorlight, REM, Scissor Sisters, Snow Patrol, Stereophonics, Sting , Joss Stone, Robbie Williams, U2, Velvet Revolver, Bob Geldof, the Killers, Madonna, The Cure BERLIN: A-ha, Bap, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Die Toten Hosen, Peter Maffay, Brian Wilson PHILADELPHIA: Will Smith, Bon Jovi, Maroon 5, Dave Mattews Band, Sarah McLachlan, Rob Thomas, Keith Urban, Jay-Z, Stevie Wonder, 50 Cent, Kaiser Chiefs, P.

The WANNABE stars - GERI HALLIWELL, VICTORIA BECKHAM, MELANIE CHISHOLM, MELANIE BROWN and EMMA BUNTON - hoped to reform the band and perform together for the first time since 1998, when Halliwell quit the group. But bosses for TV giant the BBC - which is broadcasting the event - have snubbed the fivesome, insisting the pop act is too trivial for the historic fund-raising event, which aims to persuade politicians to cancel Third World debt, double the aid budget and rewrite global trade laws so developing countries can protect their economies. The corporation also believes there wouldn't be enough time for the Spice Girls to perform at the show, because 16 major acts, including SIR PAUL McCARTNEY, STING and U2 have already agreed to sing at the London leg of the July (05) event in the capital's Hyde Park. A BBC spokesman explains, "Many of the biggest rock stars in the world have agreed to take part, and the Spice Girls just don't fit. "It's a political rally to put pressure on world leaders and their kind of pop act didn't seem right for this kind of event. "There was also a practical problem that with so many great international rock stars and bands wanting to do their bit, there just won't be time for the Spice Girls. Perhaps if five or six bands pulled out it would be different, but the truth is it's just not going to happen." An insider tells British newspaper THE SUN, "The girls will be gutted by the decision."

  • http://www.smh.com.au/news/Music/Come-together-right-now/2005/05/27/11171298 89779.html?oneclick=true Come together right now May 28, 2005 The Beatles' favourite studio has reopened its doors after decades of being closed to the public, writes Glenn Frankel. The four long-haired young men from Liverpool were a half-hour late when they entered Studio Two at EMI Records on Abbey Road on June 6, 1962. They raced nervously through a ragged set of songs, while a producer named George Martin listened to the audition from the control booth upstairs. Afterward, Martin delivered an hour-long lecture on what they needed to do to make a professional record. The rest, as they say, is history. Despite his initial misgivings, Martin signed the Beatles to a recording contract, albeit for a rock-bottom rate. The group came back three months later to record their first single, Love Me Do. It peaked at No. 17 on the British charts. But their next attempt, Please Please Me, launched a run of 12 No. 1 singles in a row and a dozen gold albums, and the most successful pop music group in history started down the long and winding road to fame, fortune and Yoko Ono. The Beatles crossed Abbey Road, location of the legendary London studio, for the cover of the last LP they recorded. Ever since, the Abbey Road Studios, especially Studio Two, have been part of the legend - the place where, by EMI's count, 192 of the Beatles's 202 songs were recorded. Its significance was enshrined when the Beatles named the last LP they recorded Abbey Road, complete with iconic album cover of the four band members crossing the street the studio complex is named after. (Let It Be, recorded earlier, was the last album released.) For years, pilgrims, fanatics and the mildly curious have traversed the crossing and stood outside the gates of the studios - by EMI's informal count, between 100,000 and 120,000 walk past each year. But except for a brief stretch in 1982, its doors have remained closed to the public. Until now. Last Saturday, Abbey Road's owners opened its gates for a film festival honouring the 25th anniversary of the studio's work as one of the world's largest producers of movie music. Nearly two dozen films are being shown over 16 days in Studio One, the cavernous, auditorium-like room where the movie scores are performed and recorded. But for many, the main attraction is just across the hall: Studio Two is also open for festival-goers. EMI veterans say the studio looks much the way it did when the Beatles worked there between 1962 and 1969. A soundproof iron door that looks like it could have done service on a German U-boat still guards the entrance. Inside, white paint is peeling from parts of the acoustic panels on the walls, and the parquet floor bears scuff-marks from hundreds of amplifiers and instruments that have been hauled over it. There are a half-dozen sets of multicoloured lights that were installed at the demand of the Beatles, who felt it gave the room a warmer, more psychedelic ambience. The cover of the Abbey Road Beatles album. "You can feel the ghosts when you're in here, and you can sense the atmosphere as well," said David Holley, EMI's managing director. "It's almost as if everyone who's ever worked here has left a sound behind." Located in posh, leafy St John's Wood in north-west London, Abbey Road began life in the 1830s as an elegant, nine-bedroom estate house with a long, lush garden at the back. EMI bought it in the late 1920s and turned it into one of the world's first recording studios. Musical history was made here long before the Beatles arrived. Edward Elgar, one of Britain's most distinguished composers and conductors, inaugurated the studio in 1931 with a historic recording of Land of Hope and Glory, Britain's unofficial national anthem, by the London Symphony Orchestra. Violin prodigy Yehudi Menuhin, then 16, came to record the next year, followed by cellist Pablo Casals, violinist Jascha Heifetz and pianist Artur Schnabel. Hundreds of actors, musicians, singers and songwriters made their way to Abbey Road: Fred Astaire, Noel Coward, Paul Robeson, Glenn Miller, Dinah Shore, Sophia Loren, Richard Burton, Peter Ustinov, Bette Davis, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, Shirley Bassey, Dirk Bogarde, Burt Bacharach and Ravi Shankar. And, lest we forget, Herman's Hermits, Cilla Black and Olivia Newton-John. Plus an entire generation of British comedians, including Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan, Dudley Moore and the various casts of The Goon Show, Beyond the Fringe and That Was the Week That Was. Music for the three parts of the Lord of the Rings trilogy was recorded in Studio One, as were the soundtracks for director Anthony Minghella's three major films: the Oscar-winning The English Patient, The Talented Mr Ripley and Cold Mountain - all of the music composed by Gabriel Yared. The remake of Alfie and the Bobby Darin biopic Beyond the Sea are among the latest soundtracks to be recorded here. But the Beatles are still Abbey Road's defining faces. In the early days, they were considered just another musical act that needed to abide by the studio's strict code of conduct. They wore coats and ties when they came to record, and the sessions were conducted in three-hour blocks, with long breaks for tea and lunch. Gradually, as the hits came and the money started to flow, the Beatles took over. The coats and ties came off, and the band started pulling legendary all-nighters. With Beatlemania exploding outside the studio gates, the band saw Abbey Road as a refuge where they could work uninterrupted, sleep when they needed to, then work some more. The drugs flowed at times, too. In his 1979 memoir All You Need Is Ears, Martin recalls John Lennon freaking out and collapsing one evening in 1967 while making Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Martin helped him to the roof to get some fresh air, then feared Lennon might fall off. Martin stayed with Lennon until the crisis subsided. The first couple of Beatles albums were each recorded in one long sprint, never taking more than a few days. But Sgt Pepper took several months. The climax came with A Day in the Life, the album's concluding song, when Lennon and Paul McCartney commandeered Studio One, hired 39 classical musicians and requested that they all come formally attired. McCartney provided funny hats for each player and a bright red nose for the conductor. After the Beatles broke down and broke up in 1970, Pink Floyd took over as Studio Two's unofficial house band. Since then Radiohead, Ozzy Osbourne, the Spice Girls and a host of other acts have made the studio their home. McCartney was back last year with the slick, powerful band he has performed with in concert in recent years to lay down a series of tracks for an album due later this year. "None of this stuff was supposed to have lasted," novelist Nick Hornby, a pop music aficionado, writes in his introduction to the film festival guide. "The three-minute pop songs and the one-line jokes were intended for immediate consumption, but it didn't happen like that." Instead, the story of Abbey Road "must also be the story of 20th- and 21st-century popular culture, pretty much all of which is dependent on recorded sound". The Washington Post

At the 50th Ivor Novello Awards in London last night, where Geldof and his Band Aid 20 co-organiser Midge Ure picked up the Best Selling UK single prize gong for Do They Know It's Christmas?, the musicians told of their plans for the musical extravaganza in the British capital's Hyde Park. Geldof said: "What started 20 years ago is coming to a political point in a few weeks. "There's more than a chance that the boys and girls with guitars will finally get to turn the world on its axis. What we do in the next five years is seriously, properly, historically, politically important." Former Ultravox star Ure added: "We'll have all the big names we can find. It's big and it's as petrifying as the build-up to Live Aid, if not more so." As Sting presented Ure and Geldof with their Novello trophy, he confirmed he would be joining the superstar line-up, which is rumoured to include U2, Madonna, Paul McCartney and a Spice Girls reunion. Sting explained: "Bob called me up and said I was doing it. He doesn't ask you, he tells you." The organisers of Live 8 aim to raise awareness of poverty in Africa as part of the Make Poverty History campaign.
  • http://www.sky.com/showbiz/article/0,,50001-1183321,00.html Park Life For Spice Girls The Spice Girls are set for a sensational reunion at Live Aid II this summer, it is being claimed. Scary, Posh, Sporty, Ginger and Baby have secretly met up to thrash out plans to appear at the July gig in London's Hyde Park, several papers have reported. They have not performed together since 2000 - two years after Geri Halliwell walked out on them - but are expected to confirm they are back as a fivesome next week. Just last week Mel B admitted they had been talking about reforming when she appeared on GMTV. An insider told the Daily Mirror: "The girls have all signed up to do this and they're really looking forward to it. "It is not going to be officially announced until next week but all the parties have signed on the dotted lines. "It's going to be absolutely amazing. Nobody can quite believe it is happening, but the cause is so worthwhile." But the girls will not be headlining as a Who's Who of rock and pop is expected to appear at the event, called Live 8. Other stars appearing include U2, Sir Elton John, Madonna, Robbie Williams, Coldplay, The Who, Eminem, The Rolling Stones and Oasis.
