Hey all! Yeah yeah, I know, I never update. Sue me!
Most of you don't know this, but my whole family is from Louisiana and Texas. My dad's entire family was living in New Orleans or the New Orleans area, and lost their homes. My aunt passed away at St. Rita's. They claim she passed away the day before the hurricane, but we think it's a load of bullshit. They didn't even contact anyone when they say it happened. I think they're trying to save their asses.
So anyway, Erin and I have been hard at work putting together a Hurricane Katrina benefit show. It's consumed all of our free time, but it's worth it. It's finally come together, and this is what we have so far:
Thursday, Oct. 6th @iMusicast
The Lovemakers
Flipsyde
Persephone's Bees
and one more TBA
Doors at 7:30, show at 8
Tickets are only $10 advance, and you can get them right now at iMusicast. If you wait to buy your tickets at the door, they'll be $12 (if there's any left!)
We're currently trying to get a bar going, and the more tickets you all buy ahead of time, the better our chance is of having a catering company help us out. So buy them tickets up quick!
I'd like to thank Tomahto for getting me in touch with the Lovemakers. They're awesome people and have been down to do the show since we mentioned it.
