National Memorial Day Concert 2011

For many, Memorial Day represents the beginning of the summer, meticulously planned barbecues and of course, remembrance. As we enjoy our time with our family and friends, let us also give thanks and remember the men and women who have given and sacrificed more than what many of us can even comprehend.

On May 29, the day before Memorial Day, there will be a National Memorial Day Concert held on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol. The Concert will be hosted by Gary Sinise, and will feature musicians and actors which include B.B. King, Kris Allen, Forest Whitaker, Pia Toscano and many more.

The National Memorial Day Concert will be broadcast live on PBS at 8:00 EST.
