OH, GOOD GRIEF

Thanks a lot, Gordon Brown: "Queen" (or at least the ones who aren't dead and that bloke they drafted in to do the singing) are now signed up for Live 8. Even being on the other side of Europe won't stop them; they've decided they're going to do a giant telly hook-up by satellite from Portugal. Although if they can't be arsed to actually turn up, I'm not quite sure why they'll be allowed to take part. They could at least be forced to do their set by email or something; it seems a bit much to expect people to hike down to London to see a fake version of a band playing on the telly.
