Heard about this via Yessworld. A bit short notice but Seattle based Moonies might be interested.

WHITE: MUSIC AID NORTHWEST TSUNAMI RELIEF CONCERT

White, Alan White's new project, is currently in rehearsals for an upcoming tour. Visit http://alanwhite.net for updates, including a new website for the band, tour information, images, and music samples.

Alan has joined the board of directors for Music Aid Northwest, an organization founded "to provide funds to aid people in need while enhancing and promoting music awareness and performance throughout the region."

As part of Music Aid Northwest's efforts to help aid tsunami victims, White will be performing on January 28 at The Premier Club in Seattle, along with the Geoffrey Castle band w/Roger Fisher. Ticket information is available on the Music Aid Northwest website, http://www.musicaidnorthwest.com.

Below is the press release for this performance.

Music Aid Northwest and KZOK 102.5FM presents The Tsunami Relief Concert, 8 p.m. Jan 28th 2004 at The Premier Club, 1700 1st Ave South, Seattle. Doors open at 7:00pm. General admission tickets: $25. 21 & older.

White said, "I am honored to be a part of Music Aid Northwest helping to bring relief to the victims of the Tsunami disaster. Music heals and through music I hope we can spread awareness and encourage people to get involved. These people need our help now and well into the future so we hope everyone will come out for an evening of great entertainment and help support this cause."

Fisher said, "Some people are still unaware that all the glaciers in the world are melting. Both polar ice caps are melting. Weather all over the world is unusual. In the context of this changing world, I'm honored to be part of an organization comprised of talented, motivated and caring people dedicated to giving aid to a future certain to need it."

All concert proceeds will benefit CARE's tsunami relief effort. Updates and information are available at http://www.musicaidnorthwest.com, http://www.careusa.org.
