Bob Geldof: The Moment

· ⭐ 0 · Votes: 0
Bob Geldof grew up listening to the radio on the outskirts of Dublin where his loneliness and resentment of prescribed drudgery manifested itself in an all-consuming desire to escape. It was an almost quintessential rock-star story — rebellion transgression fame drugs escapades fading glory. That is until he turned on the news one late-October evening in 1984 and saw a short story about a famine that moved him and changed his life. The next year Mr. Geldof was in the Sahel region of Africa overseeing distribution of the $140 million he and his fellow musicians ultimately helped to raise in one of the largest charity efforts ever organized.
