Neil Young Stephen Stills 'For What It's Worth' Light Up The Blues Autism Speaks Benefit - Dolby Theatre Los Angeles, April 21, 2018
From 2018, Stephen Stills Teams Up With Neil Young For Autism Benefit | Rolling Stone by Andy Greene:
"The reason we started Light Up The Blues was out of the void of me not having to be micromanaging Henry so much, as he was finally in a good place," Stills' wife Kristen tells Rolling Stone. "Stephen and I wanted to give back to families that don’t have time and resources to make their kid's life a full-time job with lots of overtime."
Last year was the first time they didn't hold a concert since they started the organization. "Neil [Young] stopped by our house one day last year," says Kristen. "He said, 'Stephen, man, we gotta do Light Up The Blues again.'" Stills couldn't have agreed more. "He said, 'Look, I'm out of the Bridge School. And now it's over to you,'" says Stephen. "I watched how he did the Bridge School benefits and I got great lessons from it."

I am really looking forward to this. The Greek is a great outdoor venue. This lineup maybe not as great as last one, but lots of surprise guests do show up.
