Major? Maybe I'm old. I've only heard of Stipe from R.E.M. and Chuck D.

Garafalo will broadcast her Air America Radio show "The Majority Report" live from the concert.
The live audience will be 5X her listening audience, and I'm being generous.

Me too and I'm not too sure either of them could give away their music now. I listened to REM back in the '80's when I liked to chase hippie college girls. Yeah, Stipe did me right back then. ;)

A "major" concert in a venue that holds 2,000 to 3,000 people, featuring bands and singers who don't have hits and who aren't very well known (except for Stipe), to put it mildly. That's really major (sort of like the "major" award the dad won in "A Christmas Story").

I looked up the seating capacity.
Is 2,500 a "major anti-war concert"?
