Need @ Special benefit show for the victims of Greece's disastrous fires
Monday, September 17, 2007

Hello everyone!Here's some news from the NEED camp...
As reported on Blabbermouth

According to the latest newsletter from Burning Star Records, the Greek edition of Rock Hard magazine has announced a special benefit show for the victims of Greece's disastrous fires.
The show is scheduled for September 22 at the Underworld Club in Athens, Greece. Bands scheduled to appear include CONVIXION, INACTIVE MESSIAH, NEED, REMEMBER LIZZY, SORROWFUL WINDS and WEB. The press release adds, "Even if you are not from Greece you probably have heard about the tragic events that took place last couple weeks. Millions of meters of forests burned down, more than 100 villages wiped from the map and way too many human casualties.
Greek Rock Hard magazine organizes a charity concert on order to gather money for all those in pain.

We hope to see as many people as possible in the event.
