Frequently Asked Questions:
Yes-the concert will go on as planned. Bastrop is burning, so our residents need some time to forget the losses and pain for a while!
1) How much does it cost?
This is a FREE concert.
2) How much does parking cost?
Parking is FREE.
3) How can you put on a concert for free?
Because we remember. Ten years ago American flags flew everywhere-on cars, in front of homes..."We Shall Not Forget" bumper stickers and signs were everywhere....We were united as Americans....Ten years later flags are occasional and We Shall Not Forget signs are rare..we are more divided than we have been since the 60's ...everyone involved believes it is important to come together, if only for a day, if only in this one place ....we believe there is no better way to pay tribute to the victims and heroes of 9/11 than to stand together united again. And we believe there is no better way to bring people together than music. So everyone is working for free.
