BENEFIT GIG FOR VICTIMS OF BAM EARTHQUAKE

VICAR ST TO HOST DUBLIN’S MUSICAL RESPONSE


On Wednesday January 28th, Vicar St will host a concert to mark the Dublin music community’s response to the earthquake which devastated the Iranian city of Bam on St. Stephen’s Day, killing over 40,000 people.

The night will include solo performances from Lisa Hannigan, Paul Noonan (Bell X1), Steve and Joe Wall, cellist Vyvienne Long, the Tycho Brahe, Shakram Music and Dance Company and other special guests.

All proceeds from the gig will go to support the work of Belfast-based “Save the Children” which has a special project working with children who have been left homeless or orphaned by the disaster. It is estimated that over 80% of the city was destroyed in the earthquake and besides the devastating loss of life, caring for the survivors is a major concern with no proper buildings, food supplies or sanitation. Tens of thousands of people are now living in tents or makeshift dwellings, enduring the sub-zero temperatures of an Iranian winter.

The night is being organised by Tanja Raab and Damien Rice drummer, Tomo who were drawn to the plight of the citizens of Bam.

“One thing that best exemplifies the plight of the children of Bam is the realisation that thousands of children have been orphaned by the disaster” said Tanja. “To make matters worse, Bam’s only orphanage collapsed in the quake, killing 54 of the 60 children sleeping inside,” said Tomo.

Tickets for the gig will go on sale Tuesday the 13th from Road Records, Sound Cellar, City Disk, Claddagh Records and Ticketmaster outlets nationwide, priced at €28.

Ends 8th January 2004

No, i forgot it. But the supervisors supply you with a very basic one (which in an Engineering exam isnt very helpfull) so alot of my answers are probably off. </font>
