Singer-songwriter RYAN ADAMS and NILS LOFGREN (guitarist for the E STREET BAND) have been added to the June 23rd benefit concert for ailing LOVE frontman ARTHUR LEE, at New York's Beacon Theater. DAVID JOHANSEN backed out after citing a new European tour (which we hear kicks off the day after the benefit on June 24th) with his reformed Seventies punk-glam outfit the NEW YORK DOLLS. The evening's main act, ROBERT PLANT, will perform an hour-long set, joined by IAN HUNTER and his band. Other artists on the bill include YO LA TENGO and the debut appearance of FLASHY PYTHON AND THE BODYSNATCHERS (a.k.a. CLAP YOUR HANDS SAY YEAH frontman ALEC OUNSWORTH's new side project). Tickets are currently on sale through Ticketmaster, while donations are being accepted for Lee's medical expenses at thelovesociety.com. Benefits in Los Angeles and London remain tentative.
