Live Earth Announces New Talent For Its London Line-Up

Metallica, Kasabian, Pussycat Dolls, and Terra Naomi have all been announced as the final acts to be added to the Live Earth London line-up performing at Wembley Stadium as part of the 24-hour, 7-continent Live Earth concert series on 7/7/07.

With an already astounding line up that includes some of the best music acts from around the world, this monumental event will bring together more than 2 billion people to combat the climate crisis.

With the full line-up for Live Earth London now revealed, hosts and guest presenters will be announced shortly. The full Wembley line-up is…

It’s also been announced that an exclusive download of Metallica’s Live Earth performance is going to be available for a minimal fee immediately after the event finishes. With of course all money raised going to the four climate charities hand-selected by the band: Sierra Club, The Apollo Alliance, WWF and Rainforest Action Network.

Lars Ulrich of Metallica said… “I love my sons. I want them to “inherit the Earth” FOR REAL! We keep waiting for future generations to solve the problems; to invent cleaner technology; to pay the costs…that’s the same as passing the buck. I want the buck to stop here, now. I want lawmakers and laws to impose change. Nothing else will keep this world safe for my sons.”

Kasabian, whose latest album ‘Empire’ went in at number one in the UK album chart, are joined by Grammy nominated pop sensations the Pussycat Dolls, and Terra Naomi, who wrote the song ‘Say It’s Possible’ after watching Al Gore’s ‘An Inconvenient Truth’. As part of a virtual tour from her Los Angeles apartment, she recorded herself on a video camera and posted it on YouTube; it soon found itself on the site’s front page. Within two days, it had amassed over 200,000 views – a figure that now stands at over 2 million.

It’s also worth noting that a small number of tickets have been released this week and successful applications will be contacted by SMS with instructions on how to purchase their tickets.
