Neil Young, Willie Nelson for Farm Aid 2009

Jul 16, 2009

Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews and John Mellencamp are set to headline Farm Aid 2009 when it hits St Louis, Missouri for the first time this autumn.

The singers, who are also board members of the organisation that aids American farmers, will perform at the benefit show on October 4 at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Maryland Heights.

The ninth annual event comes at a time when Farm Aid has received a record number of calls from farmers seeking assistance due to the ailing economy.

Tickets for the benefit are set to go on sale July 25 for the general public, and tomorrow (July 17) for Farm Aid members at http://www.farmaid.org. The complete line-up is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

I would have thought there should be a Millennium Recession Aid concert instead this year.

Neil Young could headline that concert as he is rolling in the cash thanks to his mega expensive Archives set.

I'd like to know, Ranasakawa...what is that Archives set like? Is it good? Would you call it complete and worth the price of admission? :)

That reminds me of a DVD I saw last year called Heathers. In it, a girl sees a commercial for staving children in Africa and says "Aren't they fed yet?"
