11/30/11 Benefit Concert

Just found out about this incredible benefit concert for "Drop in the bucket". This event is being held at the historical Avalon Theater in Hollywood on November 30, 2011. Tickets are presale for $25 and it will be an all ages show. Make sure to get your tickets early, I believe the prices will be going up at the door pending availability.

This event brings a long list of enormous talent together such as Corey Taylor of Slipknot and Stone Sour, Henry Rollins, Scott Ian, Dave Navarro, John 5 and much more. Below is more information. Hope to see you all there. ~ Marisol

Direct from Drop in the bucket site:

Legendary artist Shepard Fairey, who designed the exclusive poster for the event, will be a guest DJ, and Kate Flannery of ”The Office“ will deliver a hilarious musical comedy routine with her ironic lounge act,The Lampshades.

Taylor, hot off his recent book tour for the New York Times bestseller “Seven Deadly Sins”, is currently in the middle of a very successful and almost entirely sold-out acoustic tour. He said, “In a time when money is suspect, and politics looks a lot like schoolyard bullying, people forget that there are far greater issues going on in the world. One of which is the fact that millions of people live without water on a daily basis when we as Americans treat it like used tissue paper. It’s only common sense to think that if I can do something to not only help, but also raise awareness, then that’s exactly what I’m going to do.

“Drop in the Bucket is one of the most important and selfless causes I have ever had the privilege to be a part of. And I can only hope that I do some good for it. And to be able to do that by putting on an awesome show with friends like Roy Mayorga, Scott Ian and John 5 just shows how good this business can be sometimes!”

Rollins, a renowned musician, author and punk rock icon, has worked closely with Drop In The Bucket, traveling to Africa last year to see its work on the ground first-hand. “Drop In The Bucket is trying to make things better,” says Rollins. “There’s no profit incentive here. It’s only about getting people to water and keeping them alive and healthy.”

Funds raised at the event will be used to expand Drop In The Bucket’s vital programs into the northern region of Bahr el Ghazal region of SouthSudan. This area is on the verge of a major humanitarian crisis due to the sudden influx of returnees coming from North Sudan following South Sudan’s recent independence.

Tickets will be available for pre-sale purchase at $25 through Ticketmaster at and at the door for an increased price with availability pending.

Drop In The Bucket believes we can help create a world in which children are safe, healthy, educated and free from fear. And they believe that the key to achieving those ends is clean water and sanitation.
