Re helping Japan: If I may, I’d also like to mention a concert being produced by composers John Zorn and Sendai-born Aya Nishina. It will be held at Columbia U. on March 27th and should be the central fundraising gathering for NYC. Performers scheduled so far include Sonic Youth, Y. Ono/S. Lennon, Cibo Matto, Mike Patton, and many more. There is a possibility, still being ironed out, that several global-minded megastars will also perform. 100% of proceeds will go where they’re needed, under the auspices of the Japan Society relief effort.

Thanks for sharing this. I know it’s not a Tribeca thing but it will be a great way to do good.
