Without a doubt, he appeared at the Live Aid show in Philadelphia, PA, he also was one of two guest drummers for the remaining members Robert Plant, Jimmy Paige, and John Paul Jones at the Live Aid show drumming in place of the deceased John Bonham. I have found YouTube videos that show Phil Collins playing drums to the song Stairway to Heaven at that Live Aid show in Philadelphia. How do I know this? I WAS THERE!!! And what an awsome show it was!
"Another Day In Paradise" by Phil Collins had the last number 1 hit in the 1980s. The song was in the number 1 spot from December 17 1989 - January 13 1990 . The number 1 hit for the year (1989) was "Look Away" by Chicago.
The original live-aid concert was staged on 13th July 1985, It was split across the UK (wembley) and america (philadelphia) - and it's claimed that 95% of the television sets around the planet were tuned in to watch !

Phil on Live 8: "It has come to my attention that various sources have started to speculate on my involvement in "Live 8". All I can say is that I have not been asked to participate, and indeed cannot if I were asked. In fact I know nothing about it. I wholly support the principle of the event but, as I said, I have not been approached, and will not be available at that time. I am in touch with Bob G, and have narrated his own "Live Aid" special for radio. So it is absolutely nothing personal. I love him dearly. I have done numerous interviews over the last 12 months celebrating both "Band Aid" and "Live Aid", and I was very proud to have been involved with both events. So, if you see my name linked with this event, by all means support it, but don't expect me to be there singing."
