Bono, Bob, Youssou: Get Up, Stand Up - G8 concert

On June 7, 2007, as the G8 Summit meets in Heiligendamm, national and international stars performed at the VOICES AGAINST POVERTY concert in Rostock, and called on all people to raise their voices: against poverty in the world and for a stronger commitment from wealthy industrialized nations to keep their promises to provide more development assistance. Musicians and speakers from eight developing nations ("Poor 8") attended the peaceful rally to draw attention to the situation of the world's poorest countries

Awesome, as I love Bob Marley, I tink they did a great tribute to Bb Marley while getting their point across that we do have get up,stand up, stand up for your rights, and everyone has a right to decent housing, food, clean water,healthcare, medicine, and a decent pying job. No mattr where you live.

I was really having trouble spelling there, so I'm going to try again. Only with the mispelled words. Bob Marley. decent paying job, no matter where you live. I hate when I post something and there are so many errors, I just had to correct them this time, because I really can spell. I just can't type.:)
