all

> concerts."

> "Last year's concerts raised $550,000 for the Port Authority Police
> Department and $25,000 to a few families close to our hearts that were
> affected by the events of 9/11," states Charlie Brusco of TBA
Entertainment,
> the company producing the two Rock To The Rescue benefit concerts. "That
was
> definitely a good start but our mission is to continue the fundraising
> efforts for the families of the victims of the September 11th tragedy."
>
> REO Speedwagon's Kevin Cronin states, "A year has passed since the
> horrific events of last September 11th and I still cannot fully integrate
it
> into my life's experiences. I have watched the various televised
> retrospectives and they are so powerfully real that they have a way of
> overwhelming me. No matter how many times I see those images, there is a
> part
> of me that is as shocked and angry and sad as I was a year ago. The
feelings
> have not faded? Maybe they never will? The Rock To The Rescue benefit
> concerts will let the people of New York and New Jersey and all around the
> country know that we have not forgotten."
