To mark the 20th anniversary of the Live Aid shows, Bob Geldof is organising another set of concerts this summer

"This time, the concerts are free, and there's a different aim -- to put pressure on world leaders to tackle poverty.

The concerts will take place just days before leaders of the world's rich countries meet in Scotland for the G-8 summit on 6-8 July.

Anti-poverty campaigners hope the G-8 leaders will be listening to the message of "Live 8."

there will be 5 shows all taking place at the same time on July 2nd, in London, Philadelphia, Rome, Paris, and Berlin.

here's the confirmed line-up so far:

London

Coldplay
The Cure
The Killers
Velvet Revolver
Bob Geldof
Mariah Carey
Dido
Keane
Snow Patrol
Elton John
Annie Lennox
Madonna
Paul McCartney

Geldof is such a poser, did you ever check into how much of the money generated actually went to help anyone in famine? Farm Aid, now there's a worthy concert charity.
