U2 and The Rolling Stones to Play Live Aid-style Concert for Ukraine
A Live Aid-style benefit gig is to be held by some of the biggest international musical acts to help victims of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and to pile pressure on Putin.
The UK newspaper, The Sun, reports that it is intended to hold a “Live Aid-style” benefit concert for Ukraine at Wembley Stadium on Jun. 24. Musical greats, including U2, the Rolling Stones, the Killers, and Pink, have been asked to perform in support of President Volodymyr Zelensky.
A globally televised benefit gig for Ukraine with some of music’s biggest names is likely to raise substantial funds to help victims of Russia’s invasion and pile highly visible global pressure on Russia's President Putin.
A source is reported by the newspaper as saying "It’s something people have wanted to do for a while, but a date has now been nailed down and booked at Wembley Stadium. Invitations to perform are going out thick and fast to the biggest names in the business."
Other stars, including Sir Paul McCartney, Adele, Florence and the Machine, and Noel Gallagher, are also likely to be approached for the Live Aid-style event.

Miracle - Grateful Dead
(E, A, B7)I need a woman 'bout twice my age,
A lady of nobility, gentility and rage,
Splendor in the dark, lightning on the draw,
go right through the book and break each and every law.
I got a feeling and it won't go away, oh no.
Just one thing then I'll be okay,
I need a miracle every day.
I need a woman 'bout twice my height,
Statuesque, raven-dressed, a goddess of the night.
Her secret incantations, a candle burning blue,
We'll consult the spirits, maybe they'll know what to do.
And it's real and it won't go away, hey hey hey,
I can't get around and I can't run away,
I need a miracle every day.
I need a woman 'bout twice my weight,
A ton of fun who packs a gun with all her freight.
Find her in the sideshow, leave her in L.A.,
Ride her like a surfer riding on a tidal wave.
And it's real, believe what I say, yeah.
Just one thing that I've got to say,
I need a miracle every day.
It takes dynamite to get me up,
Too much of everything is just enough.
One more thing I just got to say
I need a miracle every day.
