You don't have to be in California to see the annual VetsAid fundraiser festival, hosted by Joe Walsh of the Eagles and scheduled for Sunday near San Diego. That's because it's streaming online.
There's still tickets to VetsAid 2023, scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on Sunday, which will include full-length sets from Walsh, Jeff Lynne's ELO, The War on Drugs, The Flaming Lips, and Lucius. But if you can't be there in person, the event can be viewed on livestreaming platform Veeps.
Last year, Nine Inch Nails, The Black Keys, The Breeders and Dave Grohl joined Walsh and the reformed James Gang at the 2022 VetsAid Ohio benefit concert in Columbus, Ohio.
Walsh, whose father died in active duty on Okinawa when Joe was 20 months old, started the VetsAid charity organization in 2017 and the benefit concert is now in its seventh year.
"I stopped counting the number of friends I lost in the Vietnam War or that came home forever scarred mentally or physically or both. We’ve only just begun to appreciate the long-term impacts on our troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan," Walsh says on the VetsAid website. "I had to do something and seeing as though rock-and-roll seems to be what I do best, it’s also the least I could do for those who have served and continue to serve our country."

VetsAid 2023 lineup
The VetsAid 2023 lineup is Jeff Lynne's ELO (a resurrected touring and recording version of the Electric Light Orchestra), The War on Drugs, The Flaming Lips, and Lucius – plus Walsh, a songwriting guitarist who is also a member of the Eagles and the James Gang.
Lynne's ELO is performing live for the first time since 2019, Walsh said on the VetsAid website.
“The War on Drugs is one of my favorite bands out there doing it and I’m thrilled to be able to welcome them," he said.
"The Flaming Lips are a perpetual joy machine that will dazzle our audience; if you know, you know and if you don’t – you will! Lucius are two spectacular vocal artists and songwriters that will take your breath away. "And to top it all off we have my dear friend and hero Stephen Stills joining as a special guest."
