Creative Commons Benefit Concert

Wired and the Creative Commons project are holding a benefit concert in New York on September 21. I’m not going to be anywhere near this event, sadly, but I thought I’d help extend its influence in the (ahem) blogosphere by posting about it (although, Matt Haughey posted about it on his blog, so I’m the drop in the proverbial ocean).

What is of particular interest to me is the line-up: David Byrne (with the Tosca String Quartet) and Gilberto Gil.

You may remember the Tosca String Quartet (then called the Tosca Tango Orchestra) for their work with Glover Gill on the exquisite soundtrack to Richard Linklater’s film Waking Life.
