Thanks for moving the post, Pina, sorry I posted it in the wrong forum in the first place... There were DEFINITELY much more than 100,000 at the Siegessaule... An estimated 250,000+ at 6-7 pm, it was simply amazing. The crowd that had gathered to watch the concert live & on the big screens went all the way down the 17. June boulevard to the Brandenburg Gate. And I have to say, there were hundreds of thousands more people in the Tiergarten itself, dancing and enjoying the music. Unfortunately, the only pics I made were on my GSM and they don't show too much - however, I've noticed you've found/taken quite a few nice photos! Kudos to Pina for the pix . If you're interested, you can watch the Live 8 concerts on the AOL sites - e.g. aol.de or aol.co.uk - they are shown in streaming videos. I've been watching the Berlin gig all over again and I even caught a glimpse of my good ol' self rocking to Brian Wilson's Good Vibrations along with the above-mentioned folks. Pity that they didn't show us while A-Ha were on... ...somehow I do feel I made history yesterday. I'm proud of the world I live in, and I just hope my voice is heard.

Bobby, No need to apologize for posting at the Inn. I just thought more people would see the post in the Great Music after the Beginning of the World (very apt title too). Yes, you did make history. Be proud. And those who haven't signed up, go to www.live8live.com and show your support. I was amazed by the Berlin crowd. It was awesome to see the sea of people stretched out for miles and miles!! I'm going to watch some of the feed and see if I can catch you in the Brian Wilson crowd. And I should have mentioned that those photos I posted aren't mine. I got them off the 'net. I was unable to go to Barrie for the show so I watched it on TV. It was nice to explain to my son what Live 8 means. I think he learned a lot yesterday.
