Boston rockers play fundraiser for bomb victims

BOSTON,  June 3: – A succession of all-star bands from Aerosmith to Jimmy Buffett rocked a packed house at Boston’s TD Garden on Thursday night in a mostly raucous fund-raiser for the victims of last month’s marathon bombing. Tickets priced between 35 dollars and 285 dollars sold out fast at the 17,500-seat venue, with net proceeds to be donated to The One Fund, a reserve established by Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick that has so far received more than 37 million dollars in donations to compensate victims of the April 15 bombing.
