Musicians to stage anti-war concert

NEW YORK, March 15 (UPI) -- More than a dozen musicians plan to join forces for a New York anti-Iraqi War benefit concert called "Bring 'Em Home Now."

The goal of the Monday night event is to give "voice to the majority of Americans who now support the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq," the New York Daily News reported Wednesday.

Among the scheduled performers are Chuck D, Michael Stipe, Rufus Wainwright, Fischerspooner, Steve Earle, Bright Eyes and Peaches.

Peace activist Cindy Sheehan is scheduled to address the crowd and Air America's Janeane Garofalo will broadcast her "Majority Report" show live from the event.
