Malcolm Weston’s Benefit 08.14.11
Malcolm is the steadiest hand we know: Musician, Mechanic & Dad. Support his recovery by showing up for his Benefit Concert Sunday, August 14th 3-7 @ The Balcony Music Club.
From MalcolmWeston.com:
Malcolm is a musician and one of the best independent auto mechanics in town, however he’s been unable to work over a year due to a serious health and digestive disorder called Diverticulitis, which makes eating and general existence pretty uncomfortable requiring multiple surgeries and long stays in the hospital. Malcolm also has a home, wife and 2 daughters (and soon a grand baby) to support and like many of us that are artists, musicians or independently employed, Malcolm is uninsured, thus finding his personal bank account drained by doctor visits, operations, hospital stays and various scans of his innards. The good news is: you can help!
There will be a benefit concert (bake sale and raffle) at BMC (Balcony Music Club) at 1331 Decatur Street (Corner of Decatur and Esplanade) on Sunday, August 14th from 3 – 7pm, that features: MAS MAMONES along with special guest FREDY OMAR, also ALEX McMURRAY, MRGO, and RITMO CALYPSO all for a measly $15. cover plus $5 more to enter the raffle of 20 donated prizes (food, art, and more).
All proceeds will help Mal and his family pay his bills, as well as raise awareness of Diverticulitis. So come on out for a good cause, have some fun and give what you can for this great hard-working guy.
