The concert will star legendary singer Willie Nelson and the Grammy award-winning band Asleep at the Wheel — featuring MPP VIP advisory board member Ray Benson. Other special guests include Paula Nelson, Carolyn Wonderland, Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling, and Mark Stepnoski. Proceeds from the benefit will go to MPP, NORML, and WAMM.
