Jason Aldean will donate all proceeds from his September 30 show in Roanoke, VA to Susan G. Komen for the Cure as part of his 6th Annual Concert For the Cure. Tickets for the show at Roanoke Civic Center go on sale August 26 and can be purchased at www.hometownbanktix.com or www.livenation.com.
“Breast cancer is something that’s affected me, my family and just about everyone I know,” says Aldean. “Last year, we took the benefit on the road and raised a lot of money in Evansville, Ind. It was such an incredible night! I love looking out and seeing all the pink tshirts in the crowd…it’s amazing what we can do and how much money we can raise when we all come together for this cause.”

Ronnie Wood with Brad Paisley

Brad Paisley has taken his tour to Europe, where he recently performed to a full house at the O2 Arena in London. During the encore Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood joined him onstage, and the pair perfomed “Let The Good Times Roll.” The show closed out with opening performer Darius Rucker joining them for Paisley’s hit “Alcohol.” Paisley’s tour rolls on through Europe this weekend with shows in Ireland and next week with shows in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
