Join John Doe, co-founder of the legendary band X, for a conversation about the band’s appearance at the inaugural Farm Aid concert in Champaign in 1985. Our conversation with John Doe will be a chance to reflect on the inaugural Farm Aid concert – an effort to raise funds and consciousness in support of farmers facing a profound economic crisis – from the perspective of a performer with a lifetime of experience making music and making history.
