Set List

This needs to be tidied up. We can't just go on the Sun's info, since that's subject to change if bands decide to change their set lists. I propose we follow the style set out by the Live 8 articles - see Live 8 concert, London. The table at the bottom is untidy and hard to add new info to. DVD Smith 13:33, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have done it as a table, it looks clearer, and any other columns needed can be added. Update it as the concert proceeds. --81.179.123.35 13:40, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
While I agree a table does look neater, I still think the Live 8 style is simpler to add to, plus it means that information about what happens in between can be easily included without having to insert it around the rows in the table. By all means keep the table for the projected running order, but I think the confirmed order should be done as on this page. DVD Smith 13:50, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, with a table though you could show who introduced each act/film, and add any notes (about what happened in the act for example) in and extra column if needed. I agree Live 8 style is simpler to add to, (but I don't agree that it matters), though only as you don't need table format (|), in my opinion anyway. And added a extra column is very easy. --81.179.123.35 13:53, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Should the projected setlist (in the table) be deleted as the artists set is completed and the concert progresses? Dan Deerskin 14:19, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes as it appears now we are not going to use the table. Though if you think (as i do) the table looks better, please update that. --81.179.123.35 14:26, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
To be honest I'm easy as far as the layout goes however I do prefer the current format. Thanks for letting me know! Dan Deerskin 14:35, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, but yeah, i'm moving over to the idea it's easier too! Though to add, the set list is (should be) accurate as it's cited from the live earth page. --81.179.123.35 14:36, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Shall we just move the table into the main format, and assume the list is correct and edit as we go along? --81.179.123.35 14:41, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's a good idea - but we have to have a space between the played set list and the projected one. DVD Smith 14:43, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Just another point relating to the Set List. Obviously important events like Al Gore being relayed to the stadium should be put in, but individual performances, should they put in? Really they are part of another concert, not Wembley. Dan Deerskin 14:49, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If it's just some guy talking, and doesn't present then no, i don't think so. Though if Ricky Gervias does another Diana concert moment that might be included! :P --81.179.123.35 14:51, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I'm going to delete the Rihanna link then, seeing as it was part of the Japan Concert. Dan Deerskin 14:53, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't even see that sat-link... Did it actually happen? But if it's a present sat link, that should be included. It's just the Rihanna wasn't actually part of the concert so it's not really important. --81.179.123.35 14:55, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't even see it either. I heard Chris Moyles (he's not hard to miss) as the picture was going back to the studio but I didn't see that music link from Japan. Dan Deerskin 14:58, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Presenters?

The BBC aren't showing each band's presenters, although they're definitely there - I think Gerard Butler did in fact present Kasabian, but the BBC only showed the band. Should we leave the presenters out if we're unsure if they appeared or not? DVD Smith 14:29, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well that's the thing, you go deleting all the info in the table when it might actually be going on :P but yes, we should include them, as it's the concert we're talking about, not the TV coverage. --81.179.123.35 14:33, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Everything is shown online via MSN, so if a presenter shows himself there he should be noted on the page, not only when the BBC shows it. Jeroen888 17:52, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Group/Individual Performances

Both Fergie and Will.I.Am performed solo in the BEP's slot, should they be included as solo artists or as part of the group? Ali Walker 15:41, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would opt for Solo, with BEP's "Where is the Love?" song being placed after the two solo artists songs. Dan Deerskin 15:42, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As part of the group (with their names in brackets) as they preform together later on. People keep reverting edits, so it's not helping. --81.179.123.35 15:44, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that looks as tidy as the other way, with each Solo performance seperate. Surely as they performed on their own as solo artists, Fergie and Will.I.Am should be afforded seperate slots on the set list? Dan Deerskin 15:47, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm.. I prefer them all on one line, as a group. Because they were introduced as the Black Eyed Peas, and referred to as the Black Eyed Peas after their performance. And they also performed Black Eyed Peas songs before and after their solo performances. Ali Walker 15:49, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's fair enough, it's no big deal as it doesn't look extremely untidy, especially if there might be similar cases later in the concert. I suppose we could end up with a hell of a list if we did it the other way! Cheers. Dan Deerskin 15:51, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with you Ali Walker, as does DVD Smith from what I can see. I got a Editwar warning from someone because of it. Bit ridiculous to be honest. --81.179.123.35 15:52, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keane - Is It Any Wonder: Dispute

80.195.232.29, the article on wikipedia (Is It Any Wonder?) includes the question mark. Please tell me why you are repeatedly reverting edits? --81.179.123.35 18:01, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Seriously, this is a serious event, please keep your personal opinions just that. Thanks.

Metallica

The BBC are so stupid. 1 and a half songs out of the set from Metallica, yet they showed the whole Keane set. >_<)

Perhaps due to bad language? They have got a lot of complaints tonight. --Dayfox 18:55, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
