(Moved back to the top this morning. Look for the guy in the Mud Hens shirt if you can make it.)
Unfortunately, I’ll miss another promising multi-band show because the second Salisbury Skatepark fundraiser is this afternoon in downtown Salisbury…featured will be He’s The Hero, Face The Sunshine, Death By Sunday and Buried in Vegas. It runs from 12 to 5, so one could do both if they wished.
My last installment of the “Weekend of local rock” series was about two bands helping out the community, and Saturday is another example of this generosity with their collective time:
I need to first of all thank Average Girl for the tip and the poster image, she knows B.J. Mohr quite well. If you find the image hard to read the bandlist is as follows: Chowderfoot, Skitzo Calypso, Too Far Gone, C.J. Hearn, Semiblind, Bear Spits Fire, Lime Green, Seventh Seal, Just Livid, and Another Vicious Cycle. Based on that list and having seen many of those of the group at some point or another it should be a great show and for $10 (plus whatever else you want to chip in for the cause) you can’t beat it! She was saying 12 bands but there’s only 10 on the poster, so I figure there’s a couple surprise guests to make life interesting.
Of course I plan on being there with my camera and ready to rock! I’ve not been to The House yet but it’s a venue that just recently hosted some national acts and it’s easy to get to – located right on the corner of U.S. 13 and U.S. 9 on the outskirts of Laurel, Delaware. Most likely the show will run straight through to 1 a.m. when the bars in Delaware close so I’ll get to see how good the food is there as well. It also means that even if you have a couple hours chances are you’ll hear at least two good bands. Take some time on Saturday and help out a good cause.
By the way, I’ll skip my usual noontime post today because I wanted to space this out for maximum exposure before I announce my Shorebird of the Week this evening. You’ll live.
Thank you for posting and coming out!!!! You were first to attend and buy a 50/50 raffle – you stayed ALL DAY IN 103 WEATHER.
There was a great turn out and Great music. The benefit really helped Bj and his bills (which are over $600K right now).
Once again on behalf of Bj family and friends – Thank you for the support!!!!!!!
P.S. – it was nice to put a face with a blog name!!!!
You’re welcome…it was my pleasure both to meet the Average family and see all the bands.
With that amount in medical bills, it’s sort of sad to think that this could become a semi-regular event for your family and friends.
