John Spalding Memorial Concert @ Showbox MKT

December 9th, 2008

The good man who was John Spalding passed away a few weeks ago after a four year battle with cancer, and now his good friends have put together the first scheduled benefit concert to help his wife out with mounting medical bills. It’s no secret that John had a tremendous gift for making others feel welcome, nor is it secret that he shredded his share of guitars. These two elements of his life will be primarily responsible for the excellent lineup of bands he called friends:

.

Minus The Bear

Rocky Votolato

Just added!! The Cave Singers

Past Lives

Triumph of Lethargy Skinned Alive To Death

.

Of course, you can always donate to the John D. Spalding fund at any Bank of America. His album, The Beautiful Truth, will be posthumously released sometime in early 2009.
