The show kicked off at my school here at SMU in Dallas, Texas. Here I was with two tickets burning a hole in my pocket and I had class until 9:30 pm. A damn shame really, I guess I'll never get to see Laurie and Sheryl.
Oh, man, that really ROCKS that Sheryl Crow is doing this - especially given her issues with breast cancer, it's doubly admirable that she has risen above personal concerns to make the environment a priority.

I think it is great that people like Laurie & Sheryl are taking the time to visit the generation that can really make a difference in the battle against global warming.
You are a liar.

I justtkick out of Sherly and Lauri wanting to ban toilet paper from the world to save the world. What a bunch of crap. They can cut all the trees (under timberland management companies of course) they want, because we need toilet paper to clean our butts, houses to live in, funiture, paper to write on, and whatever else we need wood for.
I like to see Sheryl use the bathroom and not use toilet. Put her money where her mouth is.
By the way I love trees better than Sherly Crows music.
