The official DMB site is now reporting that the band will be performing at "Come Together: A Night For John Lennon's Words and Music" on October 2nd at Radio City Music Hall. The concert, held in honor of what would have been Lennon's 61st birthday, will benefit New York City relief efforts after last week's terrorist attacks, and will be broadcast live on TNT at 8pm. Other performers include Alanis Morissette, Cyndi Lauper and Moby, and many others. Thanks to Kyle for the tip. [5:10pm Update: This is a solo Dave gig, not the whole band. The headline has been changed to reflect this.] [09/27/01 Update: Billboard has announced that Dave will play "In My Life," from The Beatles Rubber Soul.]
