We have been selected as the host of the band One Day to Live 's annual party. This is a charity BBQ and concert. There will be a minimum of 10 bands here form 12 pm to 11 pm and maybe going later.
All profits will be directed towards Don's (a local member) medial expenses for his 4 year old child with cancer.
There is a chance that the lead singer of "Three Days Grace" will make a cameo, but no guarantees, as he has a concert soon after.
This is going to be a HUGE party with 400+ ppl camping over night, good food and a BYOB policy.
If you live in Ontario and are available Aug 28th - 29th you are HIGHLY encouraged to attended. The cover is $5 plus food (extra). Don't miss the dual Harley stand off!!
PM me for details... it is going to be one of "those" parties!

Do you have a website or flyer made up? I can put it to my facebook (pls give permission to cross-post) and maybe get some folks out. Unfortunately, I can't attend, my Mom will be visiting from the states and would NOT be interested

The head liner band that contacted me has a my space and facebook site:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/One-Day-T ... 5850814744 <== but I sent them an addie with a typo: It is 29481 Hwy 28 south. If they add that extra digit they'd end up in Ottawa some where
Myspace:

Additional info:
This is a BYOB party. There is a door charge of $5, food and additional drinks (non-alcoholic) are an additional charge.
Over stayers are welcome if you have a tent, but there are no shower facilities. It is a bush party.
There will also be a dual Harley smoke off!!! How sweet is that?
Running time is 12:00 pm Aug 28th ~ 11:00pm. After that we may be going acoustic or re-locating for the remainder of the night.

with luck we can get a decent vid. I'd like a short one of each band, the smoke off and some silly stuff going on.

Curious, will you also be setting up a paypal account (by chance) for those who would LIKE to donate, or help the cause that cannot attend??

Hi, really wishing I wasn't in England as it sounds great!
I agree with Ohyouknow that setting up a paypal acct or something for those of us that can't attend to still donate if we would like to would be a good idea.

That is a good idea. I believe that one is already set up under his Mustang user forum. I'll get the details or have him post it here.
