RESCHEDULED -- Bonnie Raitt No Nukes Benefit Concert, Columbia, SC, Mar. 21 rescheduled for Oct 11th


Due to a dire family health emergency, Bonnie Raitt has had to reschedule her March 21, 2009 benefit concert in Columbia, SC. The new date for the concert is October 11th.

We wanted to let you know that Bonnie Raitt has been so wonderfully kind to schedule a benefit concert in Columbia, South Carolina on October 11th in memory of a beloved friend and anti-nuclear activist Becky Hardee. The concert is to benefit the work of the South Carolina Chapter of the Sierra Club, Friends of the Earth, Nuclear Information & Resource Service and Nuclear Watch South. We are hopeful that the concert will draw attention to the proposed new reactors here, the promise of conservation & efficiency & renewables, as well as the threat of reprocessing at the Savannah River Site. If you want to attend be sure to buy tickets as soon as they go on sale as it looks like her southern tour is selling out fast. (See
