Kool... I Just Got An E-Mail From Al Gore !!! - Wants To Watch TV With Me On July 7th !!!


Dear WillyT,

On July 7, more than 2 billion people will join together to watch the Live Earth concerts and demonstrate to our leaders that the time has come to solve the climate crisis.

Wherever you are that day, you can be part of the action. At events around the world, we are going to convert the potential energy of Live Earth into a global campaign. In thousands of homes, people will invite their friends and neighbors to watch the concerts and join the movement to solve the climate crisis.

NBC will be televising Live Earth (and even more extensive coverage will be available live on MSN) so turning your house into a Live Earth venue is easy. Will you commit to organize a Live Earth house party on July 7th? The parties will be fun and they'll make a difference.

7.7.07 will be the one opportunity we have to bring hundreds of millions of new people into our campaign. We cannot let it slip by.

If you host a Live Earth Party, you'll have access to a special video I?ve made urging people to take action. Together, I know we can convince everyone attending these parties to get involved. In a few short hours, you and your friends can watch the concert, take action and at the end, upload a photo from your event that will be accessible to others taking part throughout the world. Through these parties, we can reach more people than ever before and build a truly global movement to solve the climate crisis.

Holding a Live Earth party is easy and we will have all the tools you need to make your party a success.

Sign up as a party host by visiting:

Live Earth will be a unique moment when the uninterrupted and undivided attention of the world will be focused on the climate crisis. I need your help to really make it count.

Thank you WillyT, you're the best,



Al Gore

1. I wish I could do it...
but I have 4 weddings that day. Me and my staff are going to be uber-taxed that day.

I'll be with you all in spirit.

8. haha...
no no...I'm an event planner. July 7, 07 is the busiest and most in-demand date for weddings. I had 10 inquiries for that day but only had the staff capable of doing 4.

3. I guess he doesn't want to watch with me since I have a twenty-year-old
12-inch set and no cable.

6. Yeah, I just wish I was remotely interested in seeing more than one or two of all those bands.
Okay: Roger Waters, David Gray... is Steve Earle in there, somewhere? Maybe?

But most of those acts I've never heard of, the ones I recognize I'm mostly nonplussed about. The Red Hot Chili Peppers, hey, they were great in 1987... I suppose Spinal Tap could be good for a laugh...

I realize I'm way out of the target demographic for the Music Industry nowadays, but... fuck.. for a massive Al Gore environment-a-thon, are you really telling me they couldn't get, say, Phil Lesh-- or Stipe/Buck/Mills on the phone? C'mon.
