Secrets of Live Aid revealed 40 years on including mortifying moment for Bob Geldof & how stars gate-crashed wedding
WHEN Paula Yates' two-year-old daughter Fifi presented Princess Diana with a limp bunch of flowers at Live Aid, the cute moment soon turned into a mortifying spectacle. Watching on in horror, 8 Princess Diana, Bob Geldof and Paula Yates and Fifi offering her cheap flowers Credit: Alamy 8 Bob with the Princess Credit: Shutterstock Editorial It is just one of the remarkable moments remembered by journalist Robin Eggar, who was given special backstage access on the day. Robin, who also had a prized seat just behind the Royal Box at Wembley Stadium on July 13, said: 'It was a hilarious moment. The sticker was still very visible and Diana was very polite in accepting them — there were smiles and laughter. 'She was a big fan of pop music and was clearly enjoying the day.' Read More on Showbiz Speaking ahead of 'Getting the stars there was a logistical nightmare so they were flown in by helicopter from Battersea Heliport. 'The only place it could land was a cricket pitch near the stadium. Most read in Music 'Every time the helicopter landed, the bemused cricketers, who were mid-game, would have to rush off. Then they'd have four or five overs before the next helicopter landed. 'There was also a wedding party in the pavilion, who were wondering what the hell was going on as Freddie Mercury walked past. Quite a few health and safety rules were likely broken. Kevin Cronin and Speedwagon play Roll With The Changes at Band Aid 'But that is why it all worked. It would've been impossible to get them all there by car or the Tube.' Inside, the stars took over a giant backstage area, where the Hard Rock Cafe had built a huge restaurant to feed all the workers for free. Robin said: 'Everyone was excited, hugging and chatting. I remember Freddie joking with Midge Ure and winding him up saying, 'You're that lovely boy from the Boomtown Rats', pretending to mix him up with Bob Geldof. 'Amazing atmosphere' 'Next to the free burgers were huge charity buckets, and if anyone put in £20 they were deemed a cheapskate, so it ended up costing about £50 for a burger. 'Robbie Coltrane was auctioning off his favourite car, Jools Holland joked that he would donate £100,000 if Paula Yates offered him 'executive relief'. There was a lot of drinking. It was an amazing atmosphere.' On stage, the performances had to run like clockwork. Each was given exactly 18 minutes. There was also a wedding party in the pavilion, who were wondering what the hell was going on as Freddie Mercury walked past. Quite a few health and safety rules were likely broken The bands lined up on a 'conveyor belt-like stage', with technicians preparing the next act on a circular stage while another played, so the music was endless. Robin added: 'The drummer from Ultravox was so relaxed he had to be woken up to go on stage. 'There was drama backstage after Paul McCartney's mic stand collapsed mid-set, and Sting went on stage without his band so it was just him and his acoustic guitar. 'U2 were down to do four songs but only played two because Bono spent most of his time dancing with a girl on stage. 'There was a strange moment when Yusuf Islam/Cat Stevens turned up and said, 'I'm here to play to the world' but he wasn't allowed to play. 'But there was no doubt the star of the show was Freddie Mercury and Queen. They did all their hits in a medley, which they had rehearsed for two weeks. 'Freddie was the person everyone wanted to be around backstage.' Robin added: 'It was an incredible day to observe up close.'

'That, to me, summed up the occasion. This wasn't about them — it was about thinking of others. 'There had never been anything as big before. And nothing has been as big since.' As an official photographer, Hogie had access to the stage. He says: 'Looking back it's surreal. There weren't the safety checks we have today. 'There were no mobile phones — just 72,000 people fully focused on what was happening on stage. It was magical.' Hogie's photos captured the magical day. Here he shares five of his favourites.
