LIVE AID (1985, 영국 런던의 웸블리 스타디움, 미국 필라델피아의 존 F. 케네디 스타디움) - 밥 겔도프, 밋지 유르

1985년 <USA For Africa - We Are The World>와 1986년 <Hear N' Aid - Stars>가 스튜디오 프로젝트였다면, 1985년의 LIVE AID는 밴드들도 참여가 가능한 야외 페스티벌 형식의 대규모 옴니버스 공연이었다.

<We Are The World>에서 당대 음악계 스타들을 한 날 한 시에 스튜디오 한 곳에 모을 수 있었던 것은 마이클 잭슨과 퀸시 존스와 같은 거물 뮤지션이 있었기에 가능했던 일이었는데, LIVE AID 또한 밥 겔도프의 공로가 컸다. 대중음악 기획자(뮤지션)가 주축이 되어, 말 그대로 ‘지구촌’을 하나의 눈길로 모으는 이렇게 방대한 규모의 야외 공연은 전무후무한 일이었다. (이 공연은 역사상 가장 규모가 큰 실시간 위성 중계 텔레비전 방송으로, 약 15억 명의 시청자가 100여 개의 국가에서 실황 중계를 시청한 것으로 알려져 있다.)

행사 기획

1985년 7월 13일에 개최된 대규모 록 페스티벌이다. 밥 겔도프, 밋지 유르가 에티오피아 난민의 기아 문제를 해결하기 위한 자금 마련을 목적으로 기획하였다. (Live Aid라는 이름은 반창고를 뜻하는 Band Aid에서 따와서 난민들에게 도움을 주고 싶다는 뜻에서 붙였다고 한다.)

'범지구적 주크박스'를 콘셉트로 하여 영국 런던의 웸블리 스타디움, 미국 필라델피아의 존 F. 케네디 스타디움에서 진행되었고, 일부 공연은 시드니의 시드니 엔터테이먼트 센터, 모스크바, 빈, 쾰른, 덴 하흐, 베오그라드, 도쿄, 노르웨이, 런던의 스튜디오에서도 이루어졌다.

약 15억 명의 시청자가 100여 개의 국가에서 실황 중계를 시청했으며 2014년에는 영국문화원이 조사하여 발표한 '지난 80년간 세상을 형성한 가장 중요한 사건 80가지' 중 50위로, 대중음악 분야에서 49위인 '마이클 잭슨의 삶과 영향력'과 함께 선정되었다. (나무위키)
