“Having spent the past two years at the Sphere and working with the hardworking people of Las Vegas, I want to show them my gratitude and respect,” Walsh explains. “This city has taken such good care of me and my family that it would be my privilege to give back to the large veteran community here and to their families. The VetsAid rock and roll circus is pulling into the MGM Grand Garden and for our tenth anniversary we have our biggest show ever! Join me on stage with my musical heroes Paul and Ringo (and more surprise guests), Vegas’s hometown icons The Killers, the sublime St Vincent and my beloved The War on Drugs and Lucius who are the only acts I’ve ever invited back to VetsAid. Hit the jackpot with us on January 29th! Support our veterans and support each other.”

Starr and Walsh are brothers-in-law.

VetsAid is partnering once again with digital fundraising platform Fandiem and live music discovery platform Bandsintown to inspire fans to give back and “Be Joe Walsh’s Guest at VetsAid 2027.” Fans can Donate-to-Win online via fandiem.com/vetsaid for a chance at an all-expenses paid trip to VetsAid 2027 in Las Vegas which will include: round trip airfare and lodging, two seats in the Friends and Family section and VIP access to the Friends and Family Lounge, and a coffee date with Walsh the day before the show.

Now in its tenth year, VetsAid hosted its inaugural show on September 20, 2017, with a concert in Fairfax, VA featuring performances by Walsh, Zac Brown Band, Keith Urban and Gary Clark Jr.

Veterans and their wellbeing have always been important to Walsh, a Gold Star son himself. His father was a flight instructor for the first U.S. operational jet powered aircraft, the Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star, and died while stationed and on active duty on Okinawa when Walsh was 20 months old.
