                            I didn't know that, Thanks Holly it sounds like something Neil Young would do. I know in 2010 he was honoured as MusiCares person of the Year. He also did Farm Aid but the one I like is The Bridge School concerts which benefits schools for children with severe speech and physical impairments.
