Special Vicious Benefit Show @ Rothko Next Tuesday
On January 25th Vicious Tuesdays @ Rothko will host a Benefit for spinART Records employee Sarah Flynn. This affair is a testament to not only Sarah's amazing personality, but also her hardworking, caring friends and to the indie rock community which has generously pitched in with time, items, ideas, and energy.
The reason for the benefit or Flynnefit
In November, Sarah thought she was suffering from a bad cold, but it wouldn't go away and forced her into the hospital. Her condition rapidly deteriorated, and after many tests, the doctors determined that Sarah was suffering from Wegener's Disease - an immune disease where her own white blood cells were attacking her healthy lungs. Radical treatment began immediately, in which she was unconscious for the better part of a month. We are happy to announce that Sarah is progressing faster than anticipated by her doctors, but there are still huge hurdles for her to overcome. Rehabilitation will begin next week, but she may not be able to work or be active for months still. Obviously, even with health insurance, this is an extremely expensive affair for Sarah and her family who has been living in NY hotels and donated apartments since the beginning of December.
Performing - Ted Leo | Apollo Sunshine | The Benzos | The Head Set | JAMES MURPHY DJing, Countess Zatak with the Gil-Scott Heron Band, Chinese Stars and other guests
Tickets can be purchased here.
$15 in advance/ and $20 day of the show, and remember this is a benefit.
