Jack Johnson, Coldplay to perform at Australia Bushfire Benefit
Feb 24th
On March 14th the Bushfire Benefit will be poppin and the Aussies are sure to get a good show. The line up is Coldplay, Kings of Leon, Jack Johnson and Midnight Oil. The show is scheduled to take place in Sydney and Melbourne , Australia. This means the concert will most likely be split down the middle as far as performances go. This will be one hell of a live concert and a great way to raise some money.
All the profits from the Melbourne show will be donated to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal, while money raised from the Sydney concert will be split 50-50 to benefit the bushfire appeal and the Premier’s Disaster Relief Fund Appeal in Queensland, in support of victims of the Queensland floods. – Billboard.

Nov 18th
When asked why Mötley Crüe chose an unknown band for their new tour in an interview with Rolling Stone, Vince Neil says “Kiss took us out when we were just playing clubs, and then when Ozzy took us out it really broke Mötley Crüe. Those bands took chances on us. So why not give back and take a chance with a new unknown band?” Neil told the Stones reporter that anyone who goes to the concert will be sure to see a lot of “eye candy” and “theatrics”. Motley Crue kicks off their tour with The Last Vegas in early 2009.

Nov 5th
Good times ahead…On January 20th, when president Obama gets elected there will be a cluster of different musicians performing. Usually a president will pick a main act (9 times out of ten its a country singer) and call it good. My hope is that Obama picks 5 or 6 musical guest. I’ll keep you posted on the Inaugural party.
