The concert’s website states that its unique locale was chosen by the “White Wedding” singer to bring awareness to the severe drought in the American Southwest. However, nowhere does it mention that any of the money is earmarked for a charitable cause. The concert’s organizer didn t return a call seeking clarification before publication.
