Hi everyone. I know that it’s been a while. I’m back working full time at SPD so I haven’t been doing a lot of freelance work at the moment. I will still do bits an pieces but not as much.
I wanted to do a blog to let you know about a charity event that I’m helping out with. As some of you know a few years ago I did a lot of gig organising and promotion as Domestic Crisis Promotions. We organised gigs in and around Glasgow with some great up and coming bands. This included a charity gig in aid of the Neurological ward in Yorkhill. We had around 3 bands, an arm wrestling competition (won by Big John) and leg waxing (by the brave Martin McKenna). There was even an auction of a hand painted scene from the Shining which fetched £102. All in all we raised £1000 and had a great night.
We then did a second gig for Cash for Kids which raised nearly £600 and was also a great night. Domestic Crisis then went on hiatus dew to work commitments but we decided to raise again in order to help some of the nurses at Yorkhill Hospital raise money for a charity called Kidney Kids. These kids have been through so much and are so brave. They take part in the transplant games every year. However they need to fundraise in order to raise enough money for coaches etc.
Soooo!!!! We are putting on a Charity Rock gig on the 3rd of August in the one and only IVORY BLACKS. We already have the amazing Lil Charlie and the Easy Riders on board and need at least another two or three bands to fit the bill. If you want to play an amazing venue and help us raise some dosh please get in touch. You can send email me at kiz_moffat@hotmail.co.uk or send me a message via my facebook or twitter www.facebook.com/kiz.moffat @kizzoel.
We want to make this night ROCK and we also hope to get some of the kids that went along last year to come along.
Until we meet and Rock, peace and love
Kirsty
