Farm Aid – On TV, Internet

Gretchen Wilson is joining the Farm Air line up. She’s been added to the bill for the all-day event in the outskirts of St. Louis. So has Ryan Bingham. For the last few weeks, Willie Nelson and crew have been adding performers. So far they include Nelson, of course, along with Neil Young, John Mellencamp, and Dave Matthews, Tim Reynolds, Jason Mraz, Wilco, Jamey Johnson, Phosphorescent, Billy Joe Shaver and many others. The concert is at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Maryland Heights, Missouri.

There are other ways to catch Farm Aid if you can’t be there in person on Sunday. The concert will be shown live on DirecTV on The 101 Network. DirecTV, by the way, is pledging to match all of its customer donations up to $50,000 made between September 1 and October 31. Farm Aid also will be webcast and will stream live at www.FarmAid.org. Whether you watch on satellite or on the Internet, it’ll start at 5 p.m. Eastern time.
