Yoko Ono Gigs to Aid Tsunami-hit Japan

Japan native and widow of John Lennon, Yoko Ono will be performing at two gigs to benefit her home county, Japan which was recently hit by a tsumani after a 9.0-magnitude earthquake. Joined by Sean Lennon- Ono's son with the late John Lennon- Sonic Youth and other other acts, Ono is set to perform at New York's Miller Theater later this month.

On April 9th, Ono will join former Velvet Underground front man Lou Reed, Lauri Anderson and John Zorn in a special 12-hour show at New York City's Japan Society headquarters.

Funds raised at both events will go to the Japan Society's Earthquake Relief Fund.
