Does anyone have any kind of read if this is a one song thing. I have to believe if its the band, it would be more than one. But I had heard elsewhere that the "concert" was only an hour? Anybody hear anything else, or "in the know"

It was previously stated it was 1 hour.
The concert lineup includes:
Allen Stone
Ben Gibbard
Brandi Carlile
Ciara
Dave Matthews
Joel McHale
Mary Lambert
Macklemore
Pearl Jam
Pete Carroll
Russell Wilson
Sir Mix-A-Lot
The Black Tones
This is not a Pearl Jam concert...
Plus there will be stories in between. Mary Lambert will most likely sing that song with Macklemore
If that’s the lineup, and it’s one hour, it’s going to be one song. Hope they play a Gigaton song - they have to, right? Also, hope they take the opportunity to perform a few more songs to be released in another way.

Agreed. It is not really a concert at all. If there were 40 segments filmed, and the show is 1 hour, are we going to get 30 second song clips? This sounded like an amazing event. Now it sounds like an example of ADHD. I'm hoping for the best, though. Really looking forward to PJ, Black Tones, Brandi, Ben, Dave & Mix. But I just don't think "concert" was the right word for it.
From the sounds of it, convincing corporate partners and Washington’s civic-minded artists to get on board wasn’t as hard as orchestrating the show’s 40 or so segments in the age of social distancing. Some artists simply sent in video they taped at home without much issue. Pearl Jam’s segment was apparently guided by Eddie Vedder’s daughters during a quarantine birthday party, while Dave Matthews submitted a single-shot self-recording with a homespun quality. (“It feels like your friend Dave just called you and is playing you a song,” Jenny said.

I think it was originally on Twitch and then Prime Video the next day. But now it looks like it will be on Prime the same day. Or maybe both
All the footage had been shot. Filmmaking superduo Jason and
Jenny Koenig were deep into production on what looks to be Washington’s
(virtual) concert event of the summer. The local husband-and-wife team,
best known for making music videos
for Ed Sheeran and their hometown rap-star bud Macklemore, are the
creative leads behind All In WA: A Concert for COVID-19 Relief.
The
telethon megaconcert — stacked with a who’s who of home-state talent
including Pearl Jam, Brandi Carlile and Macklemore — was supposed to be
equal parts fundraiser and Washington love fest to help cure the
quarantine blues. A month ago, it seemed unfathomable that
anything could supplant a world-altering pandemic at the top of the
public consciousness. Then along came the civil rights uprising of a
generation.
“The challenging part of this whole thing is that in
light of the last two weeks, the tone of the world has changed,” Jason
said. “When we set out to make this show, we were in a different place.”
Initially
set to air the day after one of the memorial services for George Floyd,
the Black man killed by Minneapolis police, sparking worldwide
protests, organizers postponed the All In WA concert by two weeks out of
respect and deference to the ensuing conversations about race, Jason
says. The Amazon- and Microsoft-backed special will now air at 7 p.m.
Wednesday, June 24, on KING 5 and KONG in Western Washington, KREM and
KSKN in Eastern Washington, and stream online through Amazon Music’s
Twitch account and allinwa.org.
Viewers
can donate through the website, as well as by phone, text and snail
mail. A rebroadcast will be available on Amazon Prime immediately after
it airs. The all-local lineup features a roster of Seattle music
heavyweights and celebs including Death Cab for Cutie’s Ben Gibbard, Sir
Mix-A-Lot, Ciara and Russell Wilson, Sleater-Kinney, The Head and the
Heart, Allen Stone and Dave Matthews, alongside up-and-comers like The Black Tones.
The
postponement allowed time to make a few changes to acknowledge the
current state of the world, rerecording a few of the segments and
potentially splicing in Seattle images taken after the global
demonstrations began. But by design, it’s still a COVID-focused show,
with stories from people hit hard by the coronavirus and recipients of
the funds woven between the pretaped performances. The All In WA special
— which aims to raise $65 million in coronavirus relief — was organized
by an umbrella group of the same name consisting of nonprofits,
business leaders, philanthropists and public officials. At the time of
the show’s announcement last month, the group had already secured $20
million in commitments and Earth’s richest human Jeff Bezos has pledged
to match up to $25 million in donations.
Money raised will go toward various causes like youth homelessness,
food security and economic relief and communities across the state
disproportionately effected by the pandemic. “This crisis is really
exacerbating the existing disparities that existed here in Washington,”
said Michele Frix, chief strategy officer at the Seattle Foundation,
which is spearheading the philanthropy side.
The concert was the
brainchild of Washington’s First Lady Trudi Inslee, who was looking to
drum up cash for the WA Food Fund, an effort to help food banks meet
increased pandemic demand. After getting wind of the Bruce
Springsteen-led Jersey 4 Jersey
benefit concert across the country, Inslee figured we had enough
musical firepower to pull off something similar. As conversations picked
up around forming the All In WA coalition — sort of a statewide spinoff
of the All In Seattle initiative that raised $27 million during the pandemic’s onset — the campaign expanded.
“It’s
essential,” Inslee said of the sector-bridging partnership. “Because of
the position the cities, states, federal government is going to be in
financially because of the COVID crisis, the revenue that normally would
fund many things … is not going to be there. We need to have help from
all of those sectors to make up for those gaps.”
From the sounds
of it, convincing corporate partners and Washington’s civic-minded
artists to get on board wasn’t as hard as orchestrating the show’s 40 or
so segments in the age of social distancing. Some artists simply sent
in video they taped at home without much issue. Pearl Jam’s segment was
apparently guided by Eddie Vedder’s daughters during a quarantine
birthday party, while Dave Matthews submitted a single-shot
self-recording with a homespun quality. (“It feels like your friend Dave
just called you and is playing you a song,” Jenny said.
Still
others had segments that involved more elaborate setups, and required
coaching via Zoom for family members who became temporary
videographers. For The Black Tones’ performance, Jason remotely directed
a shoot that had one on-site camera operator running five strategically
placed cameras (three of which were iPhones) in a reverberant warehouse
that made communication nearly impossible once the beloved blues
rockers fired up a cover of Jimi Hendrix’s “All Along the Watchtower”
rendition.
“I equate Jason directing on [Zoom to a] superfan
watching a Seahawks game where they’re yelling at the screen and
thinking people are going to hear them and do what they say. That’s what
it looks like,” said Jenny, who served as producer on the project.
Some
of those COVID-era quirks might be part of the show’s charm. As the
Grammy-nominated Koenigs got going with production partners Anonymous
Content and Done + Dusted (which did LeBron James‘ and YouTube‘s
recent graduation specials), some wondered what they could do to boost
the production value. But rather than fight the scrappy, DIY nature of
producing the show during a pandemic, they decided to embrace it,
getting creative within its confines.
“There’s so many variables
that you are not in control of that you would be in control of in a
normal production,” Jenny said. “This is definitely in the time of
COVID. In that way, it’s kind of a nice little time capsule to this
crazy situation that we’re all living in.”

first performance of a track from Gigaton will air tomorrow on
Wednesday, June 24th. Join Pearl Jam in supporting All In Washington
2020 and tune in to the "All In WA: A Concert for COVID-19 Relief". The
