Does the world really need another benefit concert series? Especially one with the sorta-vague, probably-not-gonna-be-solved-by-a-will.i.am-set goal of “ending all war at the end of our 10-year period”? World Peace One, a group that already has the endorsement of a member of the Nobel family, thinks so, and they’re going to enlist quite the roster of artists to play their series of concerts around the world, which is set to begin May 17. While Jack Johnson somehow isn’t on the promoters’ wishlist yet, Led Zeppelin is, and so are U2 (understandable), Madonna (sure), Caetano Veloso (ooh), and INXS (what?). Click through for the full wishlist of people who World Peace One hopes will be pressured into saying “yes” by being asked “So, what you’re saying is that you support war, then, right?”
