On behalf of Q94, Pennsylvania Musician Magazine, City Limits and the U.S. Marine Corps Ebensburg Barracks, I want to extend a big THANK YOU to everybody who came out to City Limits this past Saturday night, and made the 3rd annual “Toys for Tots” benefit the biggest and best yet!
The whole night was a great time. All five bands put on great performances, starting with Blind Jonny Death’s rootsy Americana sounds, continuing with Plazma’s nonstop jam grooves, The Nightcrawlers tasty melting pot of sounds (Noah Figlin’s Page-meets-Plant display on Zeppelin’s “Ramble On” was jaw-droppingly incredible!), Hexhed’s high-powered hard rock and Hair Force One’s onstage edition of “Headbanger’s Ball.”
The turnout was great! Thanks to the 3 Marine representatives for attending, also Chris, Kathy and the staff of The Underground TV for taping the event (watch for footage from the concert when The Underground TV begins its second season on Channels 8 and 23 in January), and Whitey and Robin Noll from Pennsylvania Musician for making the 2-hour roadtrip to be there. Thanks also to Q94 2005 Calendar Girls Michelle, Emilie and Jen, and also Q94 2004 Calendar Girl Stephanie, for helping collect additional monies for Toys for Tots.
The final tally: nearly $1,150 was raised, along with two big full boxloads of new toys for needy area children this coming holiday season! Again thanks to everybody who helped make this a huge success! And look for the 4th annual Toys for Tots benefit next November, no doubt!
Now, a few photos from Saturday night’s festivities:
