Songs from the Who catalog will fill Carnegie Hall on March 2 when twenty acts perform in tribute to the British Invasion veterans on the stage of the historic New York City music hall.  Among the acts already confirmed for the event are Warren Haynes & Gov't Mule, the Smithereens, Gaslight Anthem, Robyn Hitchcock and Living Colour.  All of the net proceeds from the concert will be turned over to organizations that promote and support music programs for students.  Previous concerts in the series have honored Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, REM, Elton John and Joni Mitchell.  The Smithereens released a CD of their versions of songs from the Who Rock Opera Tommy earlier this year.
