Live Earth, the concert taking place across the globe simultaneously, announced the lineup for their Sydney show today.The newly reformed Crowded House will perform their second public show (after Coachella) and headline the festival.
Surf-folk star Jack Johnson is the only international act on the bill, but a who's who of Australian talent have lined up to play, including recent Grammy winners Wolfmother, Missy Higgins, John Butler and Eskimo Joe.Sydney based dance floor pop tarts Sneaky Sound System are the odd one out, while Blue King Brown should feel right at home.
Contrary to strong rumours, Midnight Oil will not be playing,
[ed: DON'T GIVE UP ON THAT JUST YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
However the Ghostwriters are set to appear which feature Rob Hirst from the Oils
[AND MARTIN ROTSEY].
They, together with Paul Kelly (who is soon to release an album you should all be looking forward to) will satisfy the older crowd.
That leaves Toni Collette and The Finish, the actress who manages to sneak onto the bill of every festival across the country.The event will take place on the 7th of July (07/07/07) simultaneously with events around the world including New Jersey and London.
The idea is to raise awareness of global warming and to think about what you can do to help save the environment.
Tickets May 18 through Ticketek
