Where Do We Get Tickets?


Never mind. You couldn't pay me to go to this:
Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan will be the guest of honor at the "Bring 'Em Home" concert at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom.

Among the performers scheduled to play March 20 are R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe, Bright Eyes, Rufus Wainwright, Fischerspooner, Public Enemy's Chuck D, Devendra Banhart and Peaches, Billboard.com reported.

Sheehan will address the audience at the concert noting the third anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Billboard said.

Janeane Garafalo will broadcast her Air America Radio show "The Majority Report" live from the concert.

Money raised by the show will go to Iraq Veterans Against the War and Veterans for Peace.
Oh, yeah. That sounds like a good time. Really. OK, maybe not.

Well, I've heard of Michael Stipe, and I've heard of Public Enemy. That's about it. In my mind, that's a good sing- they can't get the well-known artists anymore.

Still... if you're going to be near the Hammerstein Ballroom on March 20th... give us a report... if you can stand it.
