Tribute to Johnny Cash Planned

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A musical tribute to Johnny Cash will be held Nov. 10 at the Ryman Auditorium.

Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Sheryl Crow, Hank Williams Jr., Jack Clement, Steve Earle, Larry Gatlin and Cash's daughter, Rosanne, are scheduled to perform, Cash publicist Lou Robin said Thursday.

Discussions also are under way with Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Bono, Robin said.

Tickets will be free, but details on how to get them are still being arranged, he said.

"The family just wanted to give the public closure to their feelings about John's death," Robin said.

Cash died Sept. 12 at age 71 of complications from diabetes.

Bono?

Uhm....why not all of U2 perform "the wanderer"? Or one of Cash's songs. Why does it have to only be Bono. Just like this South Africa concert.

I need to see this. I probably won't, but damn that would kick ass.
