Boston rockers play fundraiser for bomb victims

BOSTON, May 31: A succession of all-star bands from Aerosmith to Jimmy Buffet 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 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 in donations to compensate victims of the April 15 bombing.
