The band travel to New York for a special benefit event hosted by Tim Robbins. The evening will be a celebration of Woody and Marjorie Guthrie to benefit Huntington's Disease Society of America (HDSA) and will also feature Billy Bragg and some very special guests. 17th October 2007 - Webster Hall, NEW YORK at 7pm"
