"We will probably be inundated with benefits in the coming months, but there will hardly ever be any sense of overkill when it comes to the notion of restoring this city to any sense of normalcy (however THAT's defined). So hopefully, the bands will keep playing on. And we're eternally grateful, as we're suddenly starved for local music and flock to wherever it is. This benefit, "A Joyful Noise: Musicians for the Children of New Orleans," features a stellar lineup: Anders Osborne, George Porter Jr., Galactic's Stanton Moore, Cowboy Mouth's Fred LeBlanc, the funky Meters' Russell Batiste Jr., Bonerama's Mark Mullins, Shannon McNally (pictured), Brian Coogan, Mack Starks, Lauren Bennett, and a special appearance by Drivin N Cryin's Kevn Kinney, among others. The benefit, presented by Don Kelly Productions, will use proceeds to buy gifts for kids at Children's Hospital and other nonprofit groups." — David Lee Simmons
