It's a great cause, and I am happy to oblige. Here's the info:
The Mike Gallagher Show announced that the headliner for the upcoming concert in Greenville Spartanburg, South Carolina to benefit U.S. Military families will be the legendary Southern rock band, "The Marshall Tucker Band."The concert, called "Gallagher's Army presents The Marshall Tucker
Band to Benefit our Military Families," will take place Thursday, May
1, 2003 at 7:30pm at the Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium.This event is taking place in the same community and on the same date
and time as the Dixie Chicks opening night of their "Top of the World"
North American tour.All proceeds from the concert will go to help military families around
the U.S.For Gallagher, this fund raiser for military families is the highlight
of a 25 year broadcasting career. "As a talk radio host, I'm used to
complaining or agreeing on the radio -- it's all talk. This is the
first time we've figured out a way to actually DO something to help
people, in this case, American military families. I couldn't be prouder
of our listeners who have so far contributed over $125,000 to
our "Gallagher's Army" fund to bring food and personal care items to
military families all over the country," he said.CLICK HERE to order your tickets for the May 1st alternative concert in Spartanburg, SC. You can also call your local Ticketmaster, or call 864-233-2525 to get your tickets now.
If I could attend, I'd be there.
