NEW YORK // Michael Stipe, Susan Sarandon, Cindy Sheehan and others marked the third anniversary of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq with a concert to benefit groups campaigning against the war.
Organizers of Monday night’s "Bring ‘Em Home Now!" concert said 3,000 tickets were sold.
Profits from the ticket sales will go to anti-war groups including Gold Star Families for Peace, which counts Sheehan among its founding members, and Veterans Against the War.

She is making money hand over fist. And she has been doing so since at least last August.
They lied about that too. Hammerstein Ballroom website said 2,800 standup capacity. Also, the tickets to met Cindy at the Vodka Bar with Peaches were available the night before. TicketMaster would have allowed you to by the max limit of eight, but I suspect not a lot of people wanted to pay the roughly $30 or $40 in the cheap seats to attend.
That 75K is split up among Sheehan's fake charity and Veterans Against the War and "others" presumably Code Pink.
However these are raw sales, while only the "profits" from sales went go to the fake charities.
10 different musical acts, even if they are donating their performances, still need to pay roadies and technicians for ten different sets of equipment and transportation.
If Sheehan made as much as 20K off this personally, I'd be shocked.
The facts are that Cindy Sheehan is using her dead son as a cash cow - she's just not making as much as you suspect. She sold out for far cheaper than most people realize.
