Pat Green, Jack Ingram, and Jerry Jeff Walker are joining together in a special acoustic concert on Sunday, January 23, 2005 at Nokia Theatre at Grand Prairie to raise money for the Tsunami victims. Doors open at 6:30pm and the show starts at 7:30pm with the three Texas troubadours on stage together.
The idea began with a conversation between Green and Ingram last week and their desire to do something to contribute to the relief. They made a quick call to friend and mentor Jerry Jeff Walker and he immediately agreed to participate.
ìPresident Bush called on all Americans to do anything they could to helpî, explained Green, the three-time Grammy nominee. ìHe even asked former Presidents Bush and Clinton to help rally our country. This is humanitarian aid. This is the best of our country supporting people during an incredibly challenging time.î Jack Ingram added, ìSometimes you feel powerless and the only way to address that is to empower yourself. This is a human tragedy on a scale I never even thought was possible. So we are coming together to play music and ask our fans to come out and support this effort.î
AEGñLive is promoting the concert and the proceeds will be donated to various charities that are helping the Tsunami victims. Tickets are $50 for Golden Circle seats and $30 for all other seats. Only 2,000 tickets will be sold and Ticketmaster has agreed to donate the ticketing fees to the relief effort as well. The donation will be given on behalf of Texas musicians.
