Oxfam's
'Make trade fair'
benefit gig was held in Hammersmith Apollo on Tuesday
September 14th.
REM were the surprise headliners and joined on stage by Chris Martin for a verse and chorus of 'Man on the moon'. 
Razorlight, Jamelia, Minnie Drive, the Thrills and a ten minute rant from Ricky Gervais were all pulled together by Dermot O'Leary who was compere for the night. All proceeds from the sold out event will go to the Make Trade Fair campaign. 
Stu, a young member from Brighton said 'Razorlight were excellent, Jamelia was an unexpected hit and REM were outstanding. Minnie Driver's a great actress. Seriously though a fantastic evening for a very worthwhile cause.'
