On September 10, 2008 the Dave Matthews Band will perform a benefit concert at Madison Square Garden in New York for the not-for-profit organization “Stand Up for the Cure“. From the official DMB site:

Stand Up for a Cure is a non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating lung cancer through strategic partnerships with some of the finest medical institutions in the world. Stand Up for a Cure was founded to raise awareness and funding for lung cancer research, treatment and education. With a new case being diagnosed approximately every 3 minutes and a grim 5-year survival rate of only 14%, there exists a profound need for an urgent response.

Tickets will be available through invitation and Warehouse only - tickets can be ordered through the Warehouse at noon on May 9th.
