    My mom always tells me about this concert, she was only 17 years old when she attended, she said all the performance did a amazing show but the one that stood out the most for her was Queen ... especially when they sung "we will rock you" she said she thought the stadium was going to collapse with all the people stomping their feet on the floor... she said she wasn't a big fan of queen but after that day she became one of this biggest fan... she was heart broken when he passed 💔 😢

I see most were in the UK lol….that breaks up the 40! Going down as [one of] if not the greatest live rock performance in history. BOOM!!

Now at nearly 59, I'm watching it on my tablet in bed, as my dancing days are over... but my head is happily bobbing in time with the music. This has to be the 15th time I've seen this, & it does not get old. Love it!!

      The music, the fashion, the whole thing.
      I was 23 when Live Aid happened. I was a student nurse, and my 3 flatmates and I sat and watched the whole thing. We sang, we danced, we laughed and we cried.
      It was a very moving event.
      We felt very much part of something bigger, something important. It was a real zeitgeist moment in time .
      In our naive innocence, we thought that with the amount of money raised, it would bring about such changes in Africa.

Queens final live performance with Freddy out front took place on 9 August 1986 at Knebworth Park in England. Freddy would pass away from the AIDS Virus late 1991.

    in my opinion, queen is the best band of all time. i'm only 19, but queen has had a huge impact on my life. music is my favorite thing on the planet, and i quite literally listen to everything, but absolutely no one could ever top queen. if i only had 5 minutes and 55 seconds left in my life, i would want to spend it listening to bohemian rhapsody. freddie mercury is the best performer i've ever seen. i wish i was alive when he was. long live queen.

      You've got great taste, when you get a chance and if you can find it, watch the 1986 A Kind Of Magic Gig at Wembley

    My son asked, how can so many people come when there is no social media to announce such event. Told him, son, our times was a unique era that can never be duplicated. The bottom line of live aid is to help a famine stricken country. We were brought by a common love to help others, and it was so genuine and pure, that’s why so many came and watch in every country. Those who helped were never mentioned and do not need to. We need this again❤

      Did Queen have concerts to help the hundreds of millions of migrants in US, Canada, and Europe?

      There was social media back then. It was called the radio. I live in Philly, the other half of this concert. The local rock stations promoted the hell out of this for months before.
