{{Disambig}}
This is a very basic template to use for articles about specific performance dates. Please make sure to fill in all CAPITALIZED TEXT that you can with the appropriate info (ex: replace BAND NAME with [[The Police]], [[Oysterhead]], etc); if you don't know then please mark it '''unknown''' so that someone else can fill it in later, do not delete the specific table section.
 
  
The article should be named following our standard calendar format. (Ex: "YYYY-MM-DD") If more than one event has taken place on that date, name the article "YYYY-MM-DD (Artist/band name performance)" and make sure there is a disambiguation page in place at the appropriate "YYYY-MM-DD" location.

=Recording information=
 
There are two soundboard recordings of [[Sting]]'s performance with Dire Straits.[http://www.oneverybootleg.nl/liveaid.htm]
 
 
 
An official four-disc DVD set of the concert is available. The video recording history of the event is complicated. According to BBC News Online,
 
 
 
''When organiser Bob Geldof was persuading artists to take part, he promised it would be a one-off, never to be seen again. That way, he said, they did not have to worry about contracts or embarrassment if they messed up amid the chaos of the day... But BBC Radio 1 concert co-ordinator Jeff Griffin realised history was about to be made - so recorded it anyway. Mr Griffin confronted Geldof at a meeting a month before the event.... "I said 'Bob I hear what you're saying, but I have to disagree with you - I just think it would be irresponsible not to record it because this has all the makings of something very, very special'." Geldof secretly acknowledged "it was silly not to do it", Mr Griffin says: "So he left it up to me." Although video of the BBC One broadcast with high-quality multi-track audio was kept, many performances from the US were not shown in the UK and so were still missing. The concert was split between Wembley Stadium, London, and JFK Stadium, Philadelphia - and US broadcaster ABC took Geldof more seriously and made its tapes unusable. The DVD's producer Jill Sinclair says: "That was what was so heartbreaking because I had no idea that they would be so stupid. "Not that they thought they were being stupid, they just thought they were following instructions." Another set of tapes had been given to the Smithsonian Institute - but were lost or stolen. Eventually, more than 100 Live Aid tapes were tracked down in MTV's archives - albeit with songs cut short by ad breaks and presenters. Ms Sinclair has not put incomplete songs on the DVD, but the four-disc set, to be released in the UK on 8 November, still clocks in at 10 hours.''[http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3604680.stm]
