The night began with two songs by Rufus Wainwright and then Yoko took the stage. When asked about the collaboration she recalled,

“I immediately said ‘Yes’ when ABC asked me to take over their window displays to help spread the message to stop fracking our beautiful state, I was surprised by the courage of ABC to use all of their windows to express a message so important for people’s health. We need more brave people to speak up and join in the fight to save our land and water.”

The night ended with a Q&A session with Deepak Chopra and Josh Fox the creators of the anti-fracking film "Gasland."
