PICS & REVIEWS

From family loss comes a song of hope - Vicki Anderson/The Press (21Oct09)

Westpac Arena, Christchurch
Tues 20 Oct 2009 - 7pm til late - $25 at Ticketek, CHCH Townhall and Westpac Arena Ticket Office on the night.

After the recent tragic events in Samoa, a group of top New Zealand entertainers have rallied together for a massive benefit concert on Tuesday 20th October 2009 at the Westpac Arena in Christchurch.

When the Tsunami hit Samoa last week, it personally affected Scribe and Savage who lost their family villages and family members in the disaster. Along with Dawn Raid, Oscar Kightley and Ole Maiava, they rapidly organized a dream line up of top NZ musicians who had no hesitation in donating their performances to this worthy cause.

All businesses, personnel and artists have given their services for free, therefore 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Samoa.

We urge all New Zealanders to support this event to aid our fellow citizens of Samoa.
