BANDS + MIDDLE EAST UNITE TO HOST BENEFIT FOR VICTIMS OF CAMBRIDGE FIRE

Written by DIG STAFF Posted December 13, 2016 Filed Under: A+E, MUSIC, NEWS+OPINIONS

 

We’re not exactly in the business of running press releases here at DigBoston, but this was one that we deemed worthy of an unfiltered treatment. Props to all the awesome bands and acts and promoters doing the right thing to help the people displaced by last week’s horrific fire in Cambridge. Be sure to come out and support, and if you can’t make it on Thursday there are other ways to help as well …

 

The Middle East Restaurant and Nightclub to host a benefit for the victims of the devastating 10-alarm fire in Cambridge, MA.

 

The benefit will be held at The Middle East Downstairs in Central Square on Thursday, December 15th 2017.

 

Tickets are now available at mideastclub.com, ticketweb.com and at the Middle East Box Office (no fees).

 

The benefit proceeds will be donated to those affected and displaced by the fire. Talent includes:
The James Montgomery Blues Band, Tigerman Woah, Lady Pills, STL GLD, Killer Cortez …
and more to be announced.

 

For more information, follow @mideastclub on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
