Dylapalooza Oct. 19 @ The Echoplex: Great Music, Greater Cause
UPDATE: Rock band TONIC has just been added to the lineup for Dylapalooza!
MySpace Records, Hotel Café, and Pablove.org/Dangerbird Records are presenting Dylapalooza this coming Monday, October 19th, 7:00PM at The Echoplex in Los Angeles. This all-ages event features a lineup of great new artists, including Emily Wells, Sonos, Leah Andreone and The Lonely Forrest, but more importantly the night is a benefit to celebrate and support a courageous young boy, Dylan David, who has battled cancer twice in his short life.
Dylan was diagnosed in 2007 at age 5 with Medulloblastoma, an aggressive type of brain tumor. After undergoing numerous treatments and showing dramatic improvement, in 2009 a new tumor was discovered showing signs of Leptomeningeal Disease, an even more aggressive cancer with an even shorter survival curve.
Through it all, Dylan’s determination, will, fortitude and indomitable sense of humor have been an inspiration to many. Dylapalooza is meant to be heartfelt acknowledgment of the struggle for survival that this little soldier has waged.
Needless to say, this is a great night of music and an opportunity to help an amazing child and his family. We hope to see you there, and please support and spread the word in any way you can…
Tickets will be $10 and can be purchased online HERE.
