So last Thursday, Amanda, her boot and I started spreading the word about LaLaPaLooza Benefit Concert for Leukemia, right here in our village of Glendale. LaLaPaLooza for Leukemia will take place September 18, 2010 on the Village Green just off Sharon Road near the railroad tracks in our sacred little town. We have five different musical acts that will take turns playing between 6:00 - 11:00 pm. I count myself blessed to know all of these wonderful musicians and call them friends. Musicians to perform include:
 |
| Amy Lord Flury & The Sins | |
 |
| Amanda Matson |
Amanda will be playing her original country songs in-between acts and will have help MC-ing the event from her friends, Joel Brown and
Liz Lothrop. Joel and Liz are sophomores at Mason High School and have both spent the past two years fighting Leukemia. We have followed their journeys from first diagnosis until now and are in awe of their strength and courage, and the profound and inspiring stories they have experienced with their families along the way. We will include more pics, videos, links and words documenting their stories on the "Our Heroes" page of this blog.
