A group of our young (Middle and High School) bands are getting together on Saturday, January 29th at the Baird Center, S.O., to do a benefit for Tsunami relief. The fun starts at 6:30 PM and the following bands are playing:
Great Fields of Fire
The Symptoms
Garbage Warriors
Gammacash
Science of Self
Welfare
This should be a fun night for the kids (grown-ups too)and it's for a great cause. Come on out and support your local musicians and the Tsunami victims. |

OK grown-ups enjoy the battle of the bands but let the kids have some fun the weekend after and send them to this event. |

My kid is is one of these bands. He's really looking forward to it. Uke, do you know any more details? I'd be willing to help set up/clean up or sell tix, or refreshments....do you know if there's a grown up in charge? |

OK there will be 5 adults (approx 1 for every 20 kids), soda will be purchased through the Baird centers vending machines and there will be a bake sale. Have your kids come down, they'll have a blast. |

Tickets are $5 and a local resident has pledged to donate an additional $15 for every ticket sold.
Please plan on attending, but if you can't make it and like to purchase a ticket anyway (remember your $5 will equal $20) please contact Andrew Gibbons at acting3me@aol.com.

Does anyone know specifically which charity the money is going toward? I think I might be able to sell a few tickets, and it would be good to know. |

Have to say that it will probably be better than "Battle Of the Bands".
While I can enjoy the bands, I am kind of tired of hearing them all the time, I was just telling my wife the other day that I wondered if there were any high school bands, are at least some young and fresh bands around to check out.
Guess this is my opportunity, and it's a good cause to boot. |

monster-They are high school and middle school bands playing. Come check out the talent in the making.
I forgot which charity this is going to (and I can't call my son at school) but it is a legitimate one. I can probably post this info when I get home tonight 7-8 PM. |

There was a terrific turnout and all the bands did a great job. They also raised a lot of money for a great cause.
Bravo for the teen and pre-teen bands of Maplewood and South Orange and all the kids who came out to support them. |
