Concert To Honor Anthony Kiedis
I am back with some good news finally! On Friday, May 8, this year, a benefit concert will be held to honor Anthony Kiedis, to Raise Funds MusiCares Addiction Recovery Services. The most interesting thing is that, among many artists performing that night, Red Hot Chili Peppers will be performing as well! Well they don’t mention John anywhere in the article, but it states that Anthony will be playing with his band mates Flea and Chad Smith. (As for John, he is probably busy with his solo projects…) So here it is:
The fifth annual MusiCares® MAP Fund® benefit concert will honor multi-GRAMMY®-winning Red Hot Chili Peppers co-founder and lead singer Anthony Kiedis, and it will take place for the first time at Club Nokia in Los Angeles on Friday, May 8, 2009. Kiedis will be honored with the Stevie Ray Vaughan Award for his dedication and support of the MusiCares MAP Fund and for his commitment to helping other addicts with the addiction and recovery process. All proceeds will benefit the MusiCares MAP Fund, which provides members of the music community access to addiction recovery treatment regardless of their financial situation.
“I’ve seen firsthand the physical and emotional toll addiction takes on people — not just myself, but so many other artists and friends as well,” said Kiedis. “The pain of addiction is leveled only by the promise of sobriety and the MusiCares MAP Fund provides access to the kind of resources that can help people genuinely change their lives. I’m proud to be honored and help raise funds for this critical work.”
For those of you who can make it to the show, contact Wynnie Wynn at 310.392.3777 or wynniew@grammy.com for tickets and information. General admission balcony tickets are available for each through Ticketmaster . And keep in mind that, out of respect for the clients the MusiCares MAP Fund serves, the event will be alcohol-free.
So get ready for the event. I bet seeing Red Hot Chili Peppers play again will be amazing, so if you happen to be anywhere near Los Angeles, do not miss this
