Just a reminder for folks in the Bay Area... This weekend, check out a cool event for a good cause. Over twenty community and professional organizations are partering up with AsianWeek to present help: Benefit Concert for Burma and Sichuan, Saturday, August 2 at Glas Kat Nightclub in San Francisco.
Watch a promotional video for the event:
The event will feature American Idol semifinalist Paul Kim, Burmese-American singer Natalise, and local band Mud, performing a rare acoustic set. All net proceeds from the concert will be donated to UMCOR to provide food, water, and temporary shelter in the most devastated areas of Burma and Sichuan.
Purchase your tickets here. After Friday at 11:59 p.m. PT, tickets will only be available at the door (CASH ONLY) for $40, so make things easier by purchasing in advance. For more info about the concert, go here.
