Musicians United for Safe Energy anti-nuclear concert to benefit Japanese recovery efforts in aftermath of Fukushima catastrophe

Musicians United for Safe Energy (MUSE), founded in 1979 in the aftermath of the Three Mile Island meltdown, is reuniting for an August 7th concert in Mountain View, CA to benefit Japanese disaster recovery in the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe. The line up thus far includes: Crosby, Stills and Nash; Jackson Browne; Bonnie Raitt; Jason Mraz; Tom Morello; Kitaro; Sweet Honey in the Rock; and Jonathon Wilson. MUSE has published a poster and a media release about the concert. The Guacamole Fund and Nukefree.org are helping with the concert. The 1979 MUSE concerts at Madison Square Garden played to sold out crowds for a week; a free concert was then performed outdoors at Battery Park in New York City for a huge crowd.
