Hey, I'm not the Events Czar for nothing!

Slightly confused..

"Okay, Philly! Are you ready for FOUR WHOLE MINUTES of Pink Floyd? It's only been how-freaking-long since they played together! I can't hear you!!!"

Poor Rob Thomas might get booed back to the Stone Age.

That is a rough stop for Rob Thomas to be in...

And great informative post Mr. Event Czar.

Sigh...

This list has been making the rounds, and information keeps getting left out each time. This list was originall provided by AOL. AOL is a Live 8 partner broadcasting on the web. So, this schedule represents their broadcast, not how the Philly show will go down. AOL could delay some performances, cut into performances, etc.

It gives us a general idea, but not an exact one. Plus, it excludes acts like the Kaiser Chiefs and Josh Groban.
