Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young have been announced as headliners for Neil Young’s 27th annual Bridge School Benefit Concerts.
Young organizes the annual acoustic-based shows, which raise funds for the Bridge School, a facility that develops and uses advanced technologies to aid in the instruction of children with disabilities; it was founded in 1986 by Pegi Young and Jim Forderer, with help from Dr. Marilyn Buzolich. The first benefit concert, in 1986, raised the money necessary to start the school, which opened in ’87.
The 2013 event takes place on October 26 and 27 at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California.
The lineup features:
• CSNY
• Queens of the Stone Age
• My Morning Jacket
• The Killers (Saturday only)
• Elvis Costello
• Diana Krall
• fun.
• Heart
• Jenny Lewis
Tickets go on sale Friday, September 13th at 10am at Livenation.com, the Shoreline Amphitheatre box office, all Ticketmaster outlets, or by calling (800) 745-3000.
The Bridge School event follows the recent cancellation of a series of Neil Young & Crazy Horse shows due to an injury to guitarist Frank "Poncho" Sampedro's hand. The group scrapped seven European dates and four North American ones in the past month as Sampedro recovers.
