...Kravitz (playing rather louder than the comfort zone for most middle-aged Democrats), a soberly besuited Jon Bon Jovi and a beaming k.d. lang. The performers each contributed one or two of their hits, an astute choice for a benefit crowd that nuzzles more contentedly on familiarity than new terrain. When the artist roster first reached back into the 1970s it yielded the laid-back Buffet, who revealed the "play one or two of your hits" strategy requested by the benefit organizers.
