Quote of the Week: Saving the Earth With Bad Music

07/10/07
.
(PR) The good folks at Hecklerspray spend a good deal of time giving out useful beating tips as well as humorously delivering entertainment news about useless celebs and other "folded" topics. Today they posted their hilarious Live Earth recap which has provided us with more than one quote of the week. Are you ready? Here they are: "...That's right, Saturday saw Al Gore's global Live Earth concerts take place around the world, where a diverse group of musicians including Madonna and Spinal Tap travelled to large vastly-lit sports stadiums in their private jets to tell a televised audience of two billion to use different lightbulbs, sign the vague Live Earth pledge and only drive around at 100mph while loaded up on pot if you're in a Prius like Al Gore's son. Unless you're Madonna, who seemed to think that singing a rubbish new song and telling everyone to jump up and down would have some sort of effect on climate change.

...there's not really any hiding from the fact that trying to save the environment with a series of global concerts that are estimated to have emitted a total of 31,500 tons of carbon - roughly the same amount as you would if you left your TV on standby for 1,684,498 years - is a bit like someone trying to raise awareness for domestic violence by punching his wife in the face a lot." - A lot more here including how Keane can save the world!
