Live Aid II

Stars including Joss Stone, Oasis and Robbie Williams are set to be confirmed for a massive new Live Aid concert in Hyde Park this summer. The 16-hour gig, 20 years since the original Live Aid at Wembley, is being arranged to pressurise world leaders into addressing the problem of Third World debt.
Bob Geldof is understood to be behind the project and is in talks with dozens of other A-List stars to convince them to perform free.
The event comes despite his public protestations that a sequel to Live Aid would take place "over my f****** dead body".
