So did the English thing and went to the pub . Rest of Cumbria was baking hot , it was a rouge shower . |

There's nothing wrong about feeling older at least you actually experienced it in many ways I wish I actually saw Queen live |

I watched a prog about it last night. Made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.
I was stacking shelves in Sainsbury’s... Then everyone was having parties in the evening, huge hang over followed by 7s in the shadows of Windsor Castle the next day. |

I remember being in my grandparents house watching it with my family. We recorded it on VHS and I watched it over and over. I remember that I couldn't wait for Queen to come on stage.

I was doing the same. Only 4 channels and one TV then - so we all sat down and watched it together. I remember my dad rolling his eyes at all the New Romantics! ![](/icons/s/razz.gif) |

I mentioned Live Aid in a conversation once with somebody in his early 20s and he asked me what was. I explained and said it was watched by an estimated one billion people. He asked "We're they all there or was it on telly?" |

I was there, directly in front of the huge speaker on the right about 30ft back. Still have my ticket somewhere.
I only went to see Duran Duran... yes I know but I was a kid, but it turned out they were in Philly, very disappointed.
Was 1 of the best days I've had, watch it whenever they show it on the TV.
My son gets a bit prissy when he watches Bohemian Rapsody and I point out every single bloody time ' I was there'.
