Live Earth Comes to Arlington

UPDATE: My review of Live Earth at Giants Stadium is up at The Green Miles

The Green Miles will be packing up the Purple Car tomorrow and driving up to New Jersey for the Live Earth climate change awareness concert at Giants Stadium.

But it turns out you don't have to leave Arlington to get the Live Earth experience! The venerable Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse will be hosting a live broadcast of the concert. You can buy tickets at the Drafthouse's website.

Here are all the details:

5PM to 11PM
Watch the World Wide Broadcast of the Live Earth Concert at the Drafthouse

Get your Earth on Arlington! Join community members for a free “sustainability fest” and “concert streaming” of the history making LiveEarth concerts. LiveEarth (www.LiveEarth.org) is 24 hour, 7-continent series of 9 concerts taking place on 7-7-07 that will bring together more than 100 music artists and 2 billion people to “answer the call” and combat the climate crisis.

USA concert artists include The Police, AFI, Dave Mathews, Foo Fighters, Alesia Keyes, John Mayer, Ludicris, Smashing Pumpkins, Melissa Etheridge, and many more. “Rock the Earth” will also feature the best of green businesses and organizations displaying and demonstrating how easy it is to go green.

This event, sponsored by Defenders of Wildlife is envisioned to help create a sustainable future for the Washington DC Area with dazzling visuals, rockin’ music, sustainability resources and eco-displays.
