Raving Mad

Sir Bob Geldof was raving mad yesterday that people were scalping tickets to his Live 8 concert on eBay.

And rightfully so. For Sir Bob certainly has never profited from music, not from his records, not from his live performances, and not from his production companies; so, he can stand in judgment of others.

Fortunately, eBay acceded to the moral authority of Sir Bob and pulled all the auctions, even those whose proceeds were to benefit charity. For this concert is about something a lot bigger than charity, namely Sir Bob's ego.
