Proceeds from the event went to the Elliott Smith Foundation For Abused Children, about which Orton commented during her poignant acoustic performance, "This is a celebration of Elliott's life, and I'm doing this for what he's leaving behind, this organization. Perhaps he wasn't lucky enough to overcome what he suffered, but maybe by doing this, we can help others who have suffered." Closing out the concert were Beck...and Beth Orton, who performed Smith's "No Name #3" as well as her tearjerking original song "What We Begin," which she explained was written for her childhood friend who committed suicide last year. ===== ~~ Kristina ~~ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
