Stevie Wonder, Kings of Leon, Alicia Keys and John Mayer are headlining the event on the Great Lawn Sept. 28 to help the Global Poverty Project’s goal of ending extreme poverty worldwide. Soledad O’Brien is this year’s lead host, and the event again coincides with the United Nations General Assembly gathering. Other celebs scheduled to appear include the E Street Band’s Jake Clemons, Russell Simmons, Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus and economist Jeffrey David Sachs. Fans must “earn” their free tickets by learning about and supporting the worthy cause at GlobalFestival.com, and 54,000 tickets are being given out. The event’s first edition last year featured Neil Young, the Foo Fighters, the Black Keys, Band of Horses, K’naan and a surprise performance by John Legend.

For one thing, you have to earn points doing/giving something in order to get a ticket. I live close enough to NYC that I could go, but have no desire to. They have 54,000 tickets available and last year, the first year, they had 60,000 attendees. I'm sure there will be mostly younger people there and wild horses couldn't drag me into a crowd that size. I believe there will be slim to no chances to see Gerry up close. As stated, he may not even be there, a lot of celebrities never show up.

Just checked on the website...tickets for the VIP packages range from $125 to $2,275. Fat chance of getting those! There are 3 sections on the left side of the stage for the VIPs and there are very few tickets.
