Headline acts including rocker Eric Clapton, pianist Jools Holland and The Manic Street Preachers drew more than 60,000 people to a charity concert in Cardiff, Wales, that raised $2.3 million for Asian tsunami relief.

Fans packed the Millennium Stadium on Saturday for the seven-hour concert featuring 20 British bands and solo artists, including Charlotte Church, Goldie Lookin' Chain, Badly Drawn Boy, Feeder, Lemar, Lulu, Craig David, Snow Patrol and rock band Keane.

"I think it's gone incredibly well," said Paul Sergeant, manager of the Millennium Stadium and organizer of the event. "It's been almost faultless."
