Left Hand Smoke, Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready & Friends (UFO Tribute Band), Brad, surprise guest Eddie Vedder, and Vast Capital performed a benefit concert for the Crohn?s and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) to a sold-out crowd at Seattle?s Showbox on Friday, May 14.

The mission of the CCFA, which was founded in 1967, is to cure and prevent Crohn?s disease and ulcerative colitis through research, and to improve the quality of life of children and adults affected by these digestive diseases through education and support. For more information on the organization, please call the Northwest Chapter of CCFA at (877) 703-6900, or visit www.ccfa.org.

These sold-out benefit concert and eBay auctions are the latest in a series of events Mike is taking part in to raise awareness and support for CCFA. Last year at the annual CCFA spring benefit luncheon, Mike served as keynote speaker, revealing his personal 20-year battle with Crohn?s and ulcerative colitis, chronic and serious inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract that are collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease.
