The blog Hidden Track is reporting that the North American installment of Al Gore’s “Live Earth” concerts, which are happening on July 7, will take place at Shea Stadium, the New York Mets’ soon-to-be-demolished ballpark in Flushing, Queens. One of your Idolators has spent a substantial amount of time at Shea Stadium, and we have to say: If ever there was a venue that doubled as an argument that the world was in need of massive cleanup, Shea is it*–and if the Red Hot Chili Peppers headline, the whole shebang will remain exactly on message.

* Before any Mets haters rush in to agree, let us stress that this criticism only applies to the building itself, and not the amazin’ baseball often contained therein.
