[edit] Which Randy Jackson is it?

I just added wikilinks for the performers. Is it Randy from the Jackson 5, or the bassplayer from Journey? I first assumed it was from the Jacksons, but I see that Steve Perry (also from Journey) was also present, so I'm assuming it was Randy Jackson from Journey. That's where it points for now, anyways. --Geddeth 12:20, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Paul Gallacher?

Among the artists listed is Paul Gallacher. But that goes to someone who clearly isn't him, and I cannot find anyone associated with this project by this name, including on the USA For Africa web site. Allmusic.com has an entry for a Paul Gallagher, but that doesn't look like him either. Can anyone (especially whoever added this name) check/verify? Danke. Fractalchez 09:51, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
