I also play rock music, and on December 1st, will be helping a friend put on an epilepsy research benefit rock show. All the money we make will go to epilepsy research.

I really want other people dealing with epilepsy to come to the show, enjoy it, and be encouraged by the support of our local community.
Help?
Thanks,
Ella

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
where are you at
here is a web site in central florida
is a very good one. there is a phone number on the site you can give them a call. you never know who is taking a vacation.
Thanks everybody for so many suggestions! We have made beautiful fliers and are handing them out like candy-- so I'll drop some by the local neurologist's office. I'm also talking to college radio stations about doing a PSA.
In case anyone is in or near Western Massachusetts-- the show is on December 1, at the Elevens nightclub in Northampton, at 8pm. It's five dollars! and 21+. So far, we have booked Abeja, The Cheaters Club, Apocalipstick, The John Bobbit Experience, Thrillpillow, and Ella Longpre (that's me), and more to come! It will be a lot of fun. If you want to come but don't have the cash-- please let me know.
Thanks again guys!
