Stretched/comes close
Hi
1. It takes a lot of manpower and back-up to do this stuff, so this meant chaos for an already stretched organization, particularly in America where the Live Aid brand didn't mean as much.
--- does "stretched" mean that people in that organization were very busy, had too much work?
--- I understand that "Live Aid brand didn't mean as much" means in America it's not widely known what it is.
2. I feared we had pushed him too far but, in truth, no one else comes close at this stuff.
--- Does it mean that no one else knows better how to do certain stuff than him? He's the best one to do the job?
