While the best way to understand the initiative is to watch the film, the premise is that it shows the damage which the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) has done to Uganda. Recruiting child soldiers to fight with no specific cause, it’s the workings of Joseph Kony and his claims of being possessed by spirits. His claims have been convincing enough for him to abduct over 66,000 children in his time (1986-now) in order to allow him to evade capture from the local authorities. The youngsters are at the heart of Invisible Children’s initiatives, the charity would like to save them from the near-inevitable risk of being takes by Kony and his forces, which wouldn’t happen if the fugitive was arrested for the crimes he’s got away with for the past few decades.

If you’re still yet to see the “Kony 2012” thirty-minute film, one of the components of their action plan was to raise the profile of Joseph Kony with a ‘Cover the Night’ scheme. The plan was to donate money to the charity in order to get an action kit, from which you could pin up posters and various other things on 20th April, all across the globe. This, however, wasn’t as successful as they may have hoped, but those in-the-know have become aware of the public’s interest in Kony’s apprehension nonetheless and plans have been put into action to bring him to justice. Thus far, it hasn’t happened, but people can still donate to Invisible Children in order to restore order in Uganda and give them the upbringing they deserve.

Dr. Dre was booked to headline Coachella Festival 2012. As a legend in the Hip Hop world, he was able to source a number of big names to perform with him. Included in his set were appearances from Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent and Wiz Khalifa. After performing one of his biggest tracks, “California Love”, the artist who he collaborated with on the song appeared. He hadn’t done this song with just any old artist. He’d done this song with 2Pac, Rap’s biggest superstar when it dropped. Unfortunately, however, he was killed shortly after the song came out. So how did they make it happen, you ask? Well, using cutting-edge technology, which some may remember from a Gorillaz performance in 2005, enabled the slain rapper to be resurrected as an animate hologram.

2Pac performed “Hail Mary” before doing “2 of America’z Most Wanted”, live on stage with Snoop Dogg at a massive Californian festival in April 2012, 15 years after his passing. You can only imagine what it felt like to be there. A life-like image of one of the world’s most recognisable figures doing what he does best, all this time after we thought we’d never see him again. Some see it as just the beginning of great things. Apparently the people behind this also brought Frank Sinatra back from the dead to perform at Simon Cowell’s 50th birthday recently too. Could it be the start of lost legends coming back to tour again, all these years after we thought it wouldn’t happen again? Who would you like to see? Bob Marley? Jimi Hendrix? Freddie Mercury? James Brown? Elvis Presley? Michael Jackson? The options are endless now.

This could revolutionise the live music industry. What are your thoughts? Would you pay to see your late idols one more time?
