Roger Waters, Bon Jovi To Headline Live Earth India

November 20, 2008
Roger Waters, Bon Jovi To Headline Live Earth IndiaPink Floyd's Roger Waters and Bon Jovi are to headline a Live Earth concert in India next month.

Black Eyed Peas star Will.I.Am will also join a host of western and Indian artists at the event in Mumbai.

Live Earth, founded by former Vice President Al Gore, began last year to help raise awareness to the growing problem of climate change.

The India event will help offer support for the country's important environmental issues and causes, and provide a platform for India to establish a leadership role in the effort to tackle the problem.

The concert will be broadcast on December 7th across Asia, Hong Kong and India on the STAR network, and will also stream around the world online.
