Live Aid: How Did Phil Collins Play Two Continents in One Day?

With the 40th anniversary of Live Aid fast approaching, we are taking a look back at the iconic festival and one event in particular. Phil Collins, playing in Europe and North America in a single day! Sounds crazy. If not impossible. So, how exactly did he do it? Well with the power of magic... just joking. He was able to do this by taking a Concorde from London to New York, which only took 3.5 hours and with the 5 hour time difference, he technically reached America before he left Britain! In a festival that saw the likes of Queen, Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Cher and more! Phil Collins's remarkable feat truly stands alone as one of the craziest and most unique feats of the 1980s and Music history, in general. #liveaid #philcollins #history #musichistory
