    Cool!


    One year from today, on September 26 2020, Global Citizen will put on 10-hour “Live Aid” style worldwide concert event happening in West Africa (Lagos, Nigeria), North America (New York), Europe, Asia, and Latin America. The event will be the culmination of a yearlong campaign titled Global Goal Live: The Possible Dream that will benefit United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals with aims at ending extreme poverty and tackling climate change. They’ve now announced some artists who have signed on to perform: Alicia Keys, Billie Eilish, Coldplay, Cyndi Lauper, D’banj, Eddie Vedder, Exo, H.E.R., Janelle Monáe, Lizzo, Metallica, Miley Cyrus, Muse, Ozuna, Ozzy Osbourne, Pharrell Williams, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Shawn Mendes, Tiwa Savage, and Usher.

    Some of the co-hosts of the event have also been announced; they include  Deborra-Lee Furness, Hugh Jackman, Idris Elba, Jill Vedder, Katie Holmes, Rachel Brosnahan, Trevor Noah, and Uzo Aduba.

    There are lots more performing artists and co-hosts to be announced. Lineups for each location, and the rest of the locations themselves, will be announced in early 2020. Learn more about Global Goal 2020 here and watch a promo for it below.

    He should do the Phil Collins thing, play with PJ on one continent and then solo on another.

    On the bright side, the new album may have forthcome by then and one of the three might be something many have never heard.

    Grasping at straws, I know.
