Pete Seeger's 90 Birthday Concert - looking for a ride

[Agnes]

Strictly speaking this does not belong on E-M.com as most of the performers are acoustic, but I think there are enough people out there interested to warrant posting this info.

There is a concert planned in honor of Pete Seeger's 90th birthday at Madison Square Garden, in NYC, on May 3rd. There are at least 46 amazing stars performing there that night (how many minutes will each get?)

go to http://www.seeger90.com/ for all the info.

I am looking for someone to drive to the concert with me. Someone from the Philly area, and someone who is willing to put up with my having to use a walker and not being able to walk very far, which means probably dropping me off at the door and then parking the car and meeting me inside the theater, etc. I expect to share the cost of driving and parking, etc. I can do most of the driving.

Tickets go on sale March 23, and I expect it will sell out quickly. Tickets seem to range in price from $19 to $250 with most at $90. There is also a Clearwater Festival in May that is a weekend outdoors affair. 46 performers in one night sounds very unlikely to me, so possible some will perform at the outdoor festival later in the month, but the page listed above, lists 46 performers for the night of May 3rd.
