The invisible children benefit
By Christin Gamez| 09/28/07 | Music Box
Do you have any plans today, Friday September 28? Do hardcore/metal local bands interest you? Well, if you do, then you’re in luck! Lindsay venue “The Rock” located on 175 N. Elmwood is hosting an Invisible Children’s Benefit show from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. and the cost is five dollars.

The show will consist of the following bands: A Sudden Tragedy, She is the Disaster, The Up Stairs, Where Angels Fear to Tread, ICatchFire, Switchsyndrome and Of Love and Wrath. All proceeds from the show will go to the Invisible Children benefit. “I think what the bands are sponsoring is great,” says Merrissa Camarena, junior at Granite Hills who is planning on attending. “I believe that this is the most worthy benefit shows I will go to.”

The Invisible Children is a program sponsoring children who live in harsh conditions. The money donated changes and effects lives in the third world where unseen wars are taking place. It started with three filmmakers, Jason Russell, Bobby Bailey, and Laren Poole; they traveled to Uganda to see what they could film and were surprised to see the conditions children are living in. The three young filmmakers created the documentary Invisible Children. They focused on the wars that are affecting thousands of children, leaving them in harsh conditions, without food. They have no money and hardly any belongings.
