The heading will tell you why the blogging is lagging!

We’re burning up the phone lines, talking to every association in Toronto trying to pull off this event…India’s greatest rock band in a benefit for India’s farmers!

If you stop by and read this…please, please get the word out to your peeps in Toronto!

Why we’re doing this concert: more than 200,000 farmers have committed suicide in India in the past 9 years. Even today this crisis continues, as farmers remain devastated by droughts, floods and predatory loan sharks in India’s suicide belt.

The proceeds of this concert will go to AidIndia, an organization that works with these farmers’ families to find sustainable agriculture solutions. They have thousands of volunteers from the US and India who spend time with the farmers in their villages for months training and working with them on new farming solutions. We are supporting AidIndia with this concert because of their transparency in how they work and the measurable results their projects yield.

And AidIndia is a 4-star rated charity…so you (and us) can’t go wrong!
