Hello to all
Just got some exciting news from Todd Mack. FODfest ("FOD" being "Friends of Danny" - Daniel Pearl, that is, the Wall Street reporter who was murdered in Pakistan in 2002) is going to be doing a number of shows in Israel and the West Bank region in the Middle East in October.
The following events are confirmed:
Sunday October 10 – Presentation & performance at ORT El Hoashallah school in Kasr-al-Sir
Sunday October 10 – Presentation & preformance at ORT Abu Krinat School near Arara Banegev Junction
Tuesday October 12 - Concert in Be'er Sheva (co-sponsored by Negev Coexistence Forum for Civil Equality) - http://www.dukium.org
Thursday October 14 – Concert at Open House in Ramle - http://friendsofopenhouse.org (currently invitation only, owing to the size of the venue)
I'm still waiting word on confirmation of another half-dozen or more shows and will post the details as soon as I get them. If you're a Guitar Noise reader who lives in the area, do try to stop in and see a show and meet the musicians. It's a great time and it's for a wonderful cause.
And look for announcements of an East Coast FODfest tour from November 16-24 as well as a Midwest FODfest tour during the first half of December.
Check out http://www.fodfest.org for more details.
Thanks!
Peace
