THANKS TO SPACEFACE FOR THE STORY
It’s true, David Bowie has been added to the lineup of the NetAid Benefit Concert, scheduled for October 9th, 1999. The concerts will take place simultaneously at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., Wembley Stadium in London and the Palais des Nations in Geneva. Bowie will perform at Wembley Stadium.Proceeds from the concerts mainly will benefit refugees in Africa and Kosovo, but organizers said the primary goal of NetAid is not to raise money, but to raise awareness of global poverty, primarily through the Web. NetAid also will include performances by U2 frontman Bono, Fugees rapper Wyclef Jean, Who guitarist/songwriter Pete Townshend, Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, George Michael, Counting Crows, Jewel, Bush, Celine Dion, the Eurythmics, Robbie Williams, the Corrs and more.There have also been rumors of reunions of the Who and Led Zeppelin for the concert, but this is strictly a rumor at this point.

High Five reviews sites on the web, selected monthly on the basis of design, conception, execution, and content, with an emphasis on clear information design and visual aesthetics.
Here is a clip from the review:
“Yes, it looks good.Every page on DavidBowie.com is lucious in layout and style. We found ourselves clicking on every link we could in order to find one bad page that did not look like an art piece. The sweat, time and energy needed to cut and polish this gem is evident.Yes, it’s got the goods.
Thanks High Five, we love that!
