This must have been a last minute thing. Tickets go on sale this morning at 9am and the concert is this upcoming Saturday. I'm glad that Bloggery Reader Kaitlin sent this over to me, otherwise I probably would have missed it.Tickets to singer and songwriter James Taylor's just-announced benefit concert for Haiti sold out in 90 minutes this morning, raising $150,000 for Partners in Health (pih.org), which Taylor and his wife, Kim, then matched, making the total amount raised so far to benefit the people of Haiti: $300,000.
Upon hearing news of the sold out concert, Mr. Taylor volunteered to donate his services for a second show on Saturday, January 23 at 8pm.
From what I was told, for the amount of tickets sold, Taylor and his wife, Kim, will make a matching donation. That's pretty generous of them!
