Bruce Springsteen 2013 MusiCares Tribute: Neil Young, others to Perform

Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young
The 2013 MusiCares tribute to Bruce Springsteen will feature performances by Elton John, Neil Young, Mumford & Sons, Sting, Mavis Staples, Juanes, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, Jackson Browne, Alabama Shakes, and Kenny Chesney.

The tribute to Springsteen will be on Feb. 8 in Los Angeles two days before the Grammy Awards.

Springsteen is MusiCare's person of the year, an award given to a performer who is notable both artistically and philanthropically. The sold-out concert will benefit MusiCare's emergency financial assistance and addiction recovery programs.

Neil Young was honored as MusiCares Person Of The Year in 2010. Also, Neil Young & Crazy Horse performed at the Paul McCartney Musicares Benefit in 2012.

And I read on Suck-ass Rolling Stone.com that this year's concert honoring Bruce will be shown on CBS...wtf??

My choice would be Racing In The Streets, but pretty sure that Elton will do that one. Should be great whatever songs they perform. And which song will Mavis do? Tunnel of Love would be an awesome choice!

Maybe we can start a pool, with everyone predicting who will do which song. Kind of like March Madness....
