As of November 8, Live Aid will be available worldwide on DVD, courtesy of Warner Vision International.
If, for some insane reason, you do not know what Live Aid was, here's the lowdown. This unforgettable global event, staged mainly in London and Philadelphia on Saturday 13 July 1985, was watched on television by over 1.5 billion people around the world. These concerts led to pledged donations and royalties of over $140 million to relieve the devastating famine in Africa.
