Fieid, a charity event for the victims of the fires that hit Los Angeles this month, brought together big names in music during the dawn of this Friday (31/1) in two arenas of the city: The Intuit Dome and Kia Forum. The opening was the Green Day, who received Billie Eilish for a special duet – and one of the most surprising moments of the night.
The band started performance with “Last Night on Earth”, released in 2009 in the album “21st Century Breakdown”. Billie Joe Armstrong sang the first verse, who talks about honoring those who lost everything on the fire, before calling Eilish on stage to complete the performance. The singer has still kept a speech to the public. “Los Angeles! We are still alive! We love this city and we are next to you,” he said.
Billy Crystal and U2 make millionaire donations
The actor and comedian Billy Crystal, who lost his house in the fire of the Palized, went up on stage after Green Day and shared his experience. “I wear the clothes with which I evacuated my house and spent a week with them,” he said. He also announced that the donations collected at night would be doubled by businessman Steve Ballmer and his wife Connie Snyder. U2 was one of the first to contribute, donating $ 1 million.
Dr. Dre, Alanis Morissette and Earth, Wind & Fire mixes the public
Alanis Morissette got on stage to sing “thanks” while Anderson. Paak excited the public before presenting a special participation by Dr. Dre. “This is a magical moment for me,” said the rapper. “This year he scores 40 years of my career and I am grateful for all the love I receive. Today, I want to thank the firefighters and the rescuers who put their lives at risk to protect us.” Dre then presented “California Love”, a 1995 classic recorded with Tupac Shakur.
Already in Intuit Dome, Earth, Wind & Fire brought the public to Delirium with “Septamber”, introduced by Quinta Brunton, creator of the “Abbott Elementary” series.

In addition, Sting joined the bassist Flea (of Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Stevie Wonder to sing the classic “Higher Ground” funk, published by the pianist in 1973.
Stevie Nicks and Katy Perry thrill the public

Katy Perry performed next to Pasadena Chorale and opened her set with “Rise”, followed by “Roar” and “California Gurls”. “This event shows that there are still humanity, kindness and love. The community has quickly joined to help the needy and this inspires me,” he said.
