Bob Geldof, Midge Ure and Brian May join other A-listers at star-studded Live Aid 40th Anniversary Gala
The Live Aid 40th Anniversary Gala took place this weekend - with the likes of Midge Ure, Bob Geldof , Brian May in attendance.
The original benefit, which lasted for 16 epic hours on July 13 1985, was organised by Bob and Midge to raise relief funds for Ethiopia as the East African country battled a devastating famine that would claim hundreds of thousands of lives in just two years. Almost 40 years after 72,000 fans converged on London's Wembley Stadium for an epic string of performances from some of the biggest stars of the 1980s, the duo were seen at the Just For One Day: The Live Aid Musical on Sunday. Echoing that hot summer's day in 1985, when stars such as David Bowie and Queen mesmerised fans across the world, the sun beat down as Bob and Midge took a trip down memory lane.
