- local stars Stokley from Mint Condition
- Alexander O’Neal and Andre Cymone
- Dez Dickerson
- Dr. Fink from The Revolution returned this year
- Questlove also returned this year to back up Maya and Gretchen.
A few event highlights include:
- The legendary First Ave was packed with 1,500 in attendance
- Hundreds enjoyed a special VIP experience with early entrance, food and commemorative photos.
- Bobby honored long-time volunteer and survivor Patty Peterson with the local Go Red, Community Health Impact Award
 Bobby got all the artists to autograph a drum head, and it was on auction on ebay.
