Top Rock Stars Line up for Mandela Concert

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Top Rock Stars Line up for Mandela Concert

[Note. None of this will help prevent the spread of AIDS. If Doctors and Scientists were left alone to do their work and make recommendations, we could save the lives of tens of millions of people. All these theatrics achieve nothing – and probably help to line the pockets of the black elite in Southern Africa anyway. Jan]

Peter Gabriel, Sir Paul McCartney and Yusuf Islam are the latest superstars to join Nelson Mandela’s call to the world for action against Aids by signing up to perform at his 46664 concert.

Gabriel and Islam will perform together in a historic moment in music at the Green Point stadium in Cape Town on November 29. Islam, more widely known as Cat Stevens, will make a rare live performance. For Gabriel it will be the first time that he will perform his song Biko – written as a tribute to Steven Biko – before a South African audience.

Gabriel and Islam join a line-up that already includes Anastacia, Baaba Maal, Beyonce Knowles, Bono, Jimmy Cliff, The Corrs, Ms Dynamite, The Eurythmics, Angelique Kidjo, Moloko, Paul Oakenfold featuring Shifty Shell Shock and TC, Queen and Youssou N’Dour, together with South African artists including Bongo Maffin, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Johnny Clegg and Sipho Mchunu, Danny K, Ready D, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Watershed and Zola.

The 46664 campaign, launched by Mandela last month in London, calls on people to join a global petition and contribute to the fight against Aids in Africa and worldwide.

McCartney was among the first global artists to respond to the 46664 call to contribute new music to help create awareness and raise funds through 46664’s ground-breaking global telephone and Web campaign, which allows callers to hear and download music, register their concern and make a donation.

The website www.46664.com also provides worldwide telephone numbers to call and contribute to the cause.

Concert tickets are available at Computicket from R65 up to R450. – Staff Reporter
