In this episode of The Quo-Cast, Jamie Dyer looks at Live Aid, marking 40 years since the historic event first took place on 13th July 1985. As many fans will know, Status Quo had the honour of opening proceedings at Wembley Stadium—an iconic moment that’s gone down in rock history.We explore how the idea for Live Aid began with Bob Geldof’s reaction to a BBC news report, the creation of Do They Know It’s Christmas?, and how Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt were brought in to help broaden the appeal of the Band Aid single. There's also discussion of the technology and ambition behind broadcasting the concerts around the world—an incredible feat for 1985.Of course, the spotlight then turns to Quo’s opening set. From the perfect choice of Rockin’ All Over the World, to the deep-cut surprise of Don’t Waste My Time—we explore how their three-song set has been remembered, edited (and in some ways, forgotten) in the years since. We also touch on how Rossi engaged the crowd in a way that predated Queen’s legendary set hours later.Beyond Quo, we look at the rest of the line-up, the Philadelphia concert, and invite you to share your memories.
