A benefit concert geared to help recovery efforts in the North Bay wildfires took place Thursday evening at AT&T Park, capped by a stadium-shaking set by Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Metallica.

The concert, dubbed Band Together, featured top-name artists, including Metallica, Dave Matthews and G-Eazy, among others.

All proceeds from ticket sales will benefit North Bay wildfire victims.

People who lost their homes and first responders got to attend the concert for free.

Tipping Point Community, a San Francisco-based nonprofit, will be working with groups such as the Redwood Credit Community Fund, Community Foundation of Sonoma County, Napa Valley Community Foundation and Catholic Charities of Santa Rosa to dish out the proceeds.

Band Together had raised nearly $15 million as of Thursday, but officials said it's just a start.
