READY OR NOT
“Live 8” is Still Coming to Philadelphia

What’s a city to do when more than a million people are expected to show up for a free concert to be held on a weekend already packed with musical and other events? When it comes to Live 8 and Philadelphia, the answer appears to be plan, plot, strategize, pray, and hope someone picks up part of the tab, according to “Sorting Through Live 8 Logistics,” by Jennifer Lin and Marcia Gelbart in today’s Philadelphia Inquirer.

Elsewhere, Kelefa Sanneh of the New York Times addresses the Spice Girls chatter in “Musically Saving the World: The Dos and Don’ts of Live 8.”
