Not solely was the “Again to the Starting” live performance that includes the ultimate performances by Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne an amazing success from a music standpoint, it additionally raised practically $200 million to be break up amongst three charities.
Rage In opposition to the Machine’s Tom Morello, who served as musical director of the historic all-day live performance posted a graphic Tuesday (July eighth) on Instagram (see under), reporting that “greater than $190 million will likely be donated to homes and hospitals for kids.” The cash will likely be break up between Treatment Parkinson’s, Birmingham Kids’s Hospital, and Acorn Kids’s Hospice, as detailed by the BBC.
Yesterday, it was reported that greater than 5 million folks tuned into the paid livestream. Whereas the breakdown of the proceeds hasn’t been made public, the livestream alone would account for greater than $150 million at $30 per digital ticket. All of the artists taking part did so for no price, which means all proceeds went to charity.
