July 13, 1985 - Chrissie Mullen May and baby Louisa May, Brian May's wife and daughter, can be seen onstage during the "Live Aid" concert finale, where big stars such as George Michael, Freddie Mercury, Paul McCartney, David Bowie and Bono, sang "Do They Know it's Christmas?".

Live Aid was a multi-venue benefit concert held on Saturday 13 July 1985, as well as a music-based fundraising initiative. The original event was organised by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise further funds for relief of the 1983–1985 famine in Ethiopia, a movement that started with the release of the successful charity single "Do They Know It's Christmas?" in December 1984. Billed as the "global jukebox", Live Aid was held simultaneously at Wembley Stadium in London, attended by about 72,000 people, and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia, attended by 89,484 people.

On the same day, concerts inspired by the initiative were held in other countries, such as the Soviet Union, Canada, Japan, Yugoslavia, Austria, Australia, and West Germany. It was one of the largest satellite link-ups and television broadcasts of all time; an estimated audience of 1.9 billion, in 150 nations, watched the live broadcast, nearly 40 percent of the world population.

Brian, before Love Of My Life: “We don’t usually make dedications, as those of you who see us every night know, but we’d like to dedicate this just once to all of you who have sweated long and hard to get here and see us. I hope it’s worth it.” He then acknowledges his daughter who is on hand to see the band for the first time. “I’d like to dedicate this to someone else too. It’s a little lady with very big eyes and blonde hair and only three years old. Louisa May, this is for you.” Brian plays a bit of Brahms’ Lullaby for her during the interlude.

Been rereading Little Women recently... or technically, properly reading it for the first time. The last time I touched this book was when I was ten, and the book I touched was a shortened chinese edition (or was it just the first half? anyway) Here are the sisters in 21 century post covid and I think Beth would've loved the groundbreaking invention that is the Hoodie

Movie of a centuries-old novel: since the novel has ProBlEmaAtIc elements, we will rewrite it to make it more appealing for our modern audience!

Me: then how did you end up being even less progressive and feminist than the original source? And you missed the point the author was trying to make too!

Movie of a centuries-old novel: we have sassy and tomboyish female characters, what are you talking about?
