Judging by the schedule, the concert appears to get over kind of early, but, I guess that's b/c of the TV broadcasting, the timing of the other concerts, and, the different time zones. I can't wait for Jack Johnson- one of my faves! Wolfmother should be cool, too. I'll let you all know how it goes.

UPDATE:
Despite being a bit chilly (since it's winter here), Live Earth rocked! Our favourite acts of the day were The John Butler Trio and Jack Johnson. The John Butler Trio totally got the crowd in to it and played a great set- they were awesome. Jack Johnson played a more mellow set and sang mostly songs that pertained to the environment, mankind's impact on the earth and each other, etc- very cool! We also enjoyed seeing Missy Higgins, Wolfmother and Sneaky Sound System. Even Toni Collete was pretty good although it's a bit weird seeing a serious, "older" actress rocking out on stage? Hmmm... There was also Paul Kelly who is sort of like the Australian version of James Taylor- he was pretty good. Overall, it was a great day. Here are some pictures and movie clips I took during the concert.
