In a rare alliance, a wide range of artists and competing promoters are combining efforts in an online auctioning program to benefit Music Rising, the musical instrument replacement fund founded by U2's the Edge, producer Bob Ezrin and Gibson Guitar chairman Henry Juszkiewicz.

Some 60 artists will work with Ticketmaster, Live Nation, House of Blues, AEG Live and Nederlander Concerts on an online ticket auction fundraising program in support of Music Rising, a campaign to replace instruments and equipment lost by Gulf Coast musicians in Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. "
