    FYI, this weekend I checked out the ticket situation for this…LOTS of good tix still on ticketmaster, some stuff below face on the usual broker sites. Decided to take the plunge…if in doubt go to the show, right? 11th row floor, less than face on stubhub. Should be good, check out the performers:

    Garth Hudson, Roger Waters, Gregg Allman, John Mayer, Joe Walsh, Lucinda Williams, Mavis Staples, David Bromberg, My Morning Jacket, Dierks Bentley, Eric Church, Bruce Hornsby, Ray LaMontagne, John Hiatt, Grace Potter, Warren Haynes, Allen Toussaint, Robert Randolph, John Prine, Jorma Kaukonen, Marc Cohn, the Levon Helm Band

    Now that you mention it, that is a great line up. I saw Jorma recently and he was great. I have not seen David Bromberg since I was in college but I would love to see him now. Ditto Garth Hudson.

    Have fun! 😀

    Here’s a blog report from last night with the complete set list.
    Lucinda’s contribution was “Whispering Pines”

    The concert finished with all the artists on stage performing “The Weight”.
