Oxjam

I don't know how many of you people know about Oxfam the charity organisation.

I guess mostly UK people would know.

anyway, as I volunteer in my local shop for more than 2 years now, we get info on up coming events Oxfam are doing.

and there going to do Oxjam, a drive on musical events.

my manager is a guitarist and he striaght away got talking to people about it.

and in mid october our town will be having a funded concert in our town square surpported by our local councill

we'll have a few rock bands and some urban artists as thats more of what our town likes :/

anyway, when it finally happens i though i'd tell you how it went..

dunno if i'll be able to get photos as i'll be donation colecting

but i'll be there for the whole thing

I knew that city sounded familiar, hehe. Sounds like a great initiative, deathmedic.

its not a city, its a tumour attached to the side of london by this cancerous strip known to most as the m4 corridor & its lovely unused buslane :cool:
