Forming shortly after the Three Mile Island nuclear accident the Musicians United for Safe Energy, or MUSE, was founded by Jackson Browne, Graham Nash, Bonnie Raitt & John Hall. Between them they organized a series of No Nukes concerts held at Madison Square Garden in 1979 as well as the infamous activist rally, which attracted nearly 200,000, held at the then-empty Battery Park City landfill site in New York.

Now, more the 30 years on some of the same artists are uniting once again for a new No Nukes show although this time to be at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California.

The concert's aim is to raise awareness of nuclear energy in the wake of the Japanese catastrophe that occurred earlier this year.

"The accident in Fukushima has awakened not only a lot of people, but a lot of counties, to the stupidity of nuclear power," Graham Nash, one of the event's organizers, tells Rolling Stone. "It's a fucked way of boiling water. The goal of the shows is to raise money so we can fund all the anti-nuclear power groups who have been working so long and so hard for sanity."

The event, which is set to take place on August 7th, will be run by solo power, bio-diesel and wind power and will feature many of the artists from the original No Nukes shows along with RATM's Tom Morello and Jason Mraz. There is still no word on whether Bruce Springsteen or Tom Petty (who both played the first batch of shows in the 70's) will be added to the bill.
