It took place days before the G8 summit, an annual meeting between the leaders from the world's most powerful countries. More than 3,000 musicians performed at the concerts, which were broadcasted on 182 television networks around the world, and it reached a global audience of 430 billion people. It featured many of the major music stars of the time, from U2, Madonna and Coldplay in London, to Jay-Z, Stevie Wonder and Bon jovi in the States, it wouldn't have been such a success if it hadn't ‘got the support from so many people around the world. ‘According to the Live 8 organizer Bob Geldof, the events raised more than £3 million through the text message lottery system for tickets. Tickets for the London event were free, just a fee of £1.50 was charged to senda text. Live 8 was nota fundraising event, but an attempt to raise political awareness about the issues of people suffering from poverty in Africa. And it did just that. In july that year, the G8 leaders pledged to double the previous year's levels of aid to poor nations from US$25 billion to USSso billion and half of the money was to goto Africa, Without the charity concertit’s difficult to believe the leaders of the countries would have promised to give so much money. | 1 Match to indicate what the following information refersto. 0 GBleadersa 1 Jay-2_ 2 Bob Geldoff_ 3 Liveaid_ 4 S2sbillion —_ 5 Lives 6 £3million_ 7 £150 A leaders of the world's most powerful countries B amountgiven by the G8 to poor nations before Live 8 charity concert that took place in 2005 1D money Live8 raised through text messages E price ofa text message to enter the ticket lottery for Lives charity concert which took place in 1985 singer taking partin Live 8 H organizer of the charity concert Live 8 on 2.
