Jabarkan Konser di Stadion JFK dari Live Aid

Di awal konser Live Aid di Amerika, Joan Baez berteriak di hadapan massa (dan pemirsa televisi), "This is your Woodstock, and it's long overdue".

Ron Wood memberikan gitarnya kepada Bob Dylan ketika senar gitar Dylan putus. Akibatnya, Ron Wood cuma berdiri di atas panggung tanpa gitar. Sambil menunggu panitia membawakan gitar pengganti, Ron Wood beraksi memainkan air guitar sambil memutar-mutarkan lengan meniru gaya bergitar Pete Townshend.

Konser di Stadion JFK ikut menampilkan reuni Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, formasi asli Black Sabbath, dan sisa anggota Led Zeppelin dibantu Phil Collins dan Tony Thompson yang memainkan drum secara bergantian.

Pada awalnya Duran Duran juga direncanakan tampil di London tetapi akhirnya batal dan hanya tampil di Philadephia. Duran-Duran tampil membawakan 4 buah lagu, termasuk di antaranya lagu "A View to a Kill".
