One of the most-anticipated music events taking place in the San Francisco area every year is Neil Young’s Bridge School Benefit. Although the dates for this year’s event were announced a few weeks ago – Oct. 24 & 25 at Mountain View’s Shoreline Amphitheatre – the official lineup was not announced until today. And what a lineup it is.
Of course, there’s Young and his wife Pegi. That’s a given. However, this year’s Bridge School sports a very impressive and varied list of artists and bands, including No Doubt, Chris Martin of Coldplay, Sheryl Crow, Fleet Foxes, Monsters Of Folk and Gavin Rossdale appearing on both days.
(Update: As Pollstar user Kinks notes below, we inadvertently missed listing Wolfmother as also appearing both days. Our apologies.)

Jimmy Buffett appears only on Saturday, Oct. 24 and Adam Sandler makes one appearance – Sunday, Oct. 25.
All proceeds go to the Bridge School, an organization working to educate children with severe physical disabilities and speech impairments. Pegi Young organized the first Bridge School benefit in 1986.
