5/12/2009 @ 6:30 PM, Chengdu Bookworm
To commemerate this tragic event, and, importantly, to raise some more funds for the victims, please join us at The Bookworm from 6.30pm on Tuesday. We’ll have a great KC Meats BBQ on the go, and be entertained by a host of bands, most of whom played at our first fundraising event last year immediately after the quake struck. Entrance is free. All profits from the evening will go directly into projects assisting the victims of the disaster.
The evening will also mark the release of Afterquake. To raise awareness of victims still in need, folk musician Abigail Washburn and electronic artist Dave Liang spent two weeks in Sichuan to create Afterquake, an album that mixes actual sounds of the rebuilding with the voices of relocated school children.
The Afterquake CDs will be available on the evening, and a short film showing how the project came together will be screened. For more info on this project, visit www.afterquakemusic.com
