Enter Music Publishing Hosts Historic Hit Man Beneift August 13 for Richie Hayward; Benefit In Conn With San Jose Jazz Festival
Enter Music Publishing will sponsor a very unique benefit on behalf of famed Little Feat drummerr, Ritchie Hayward. Diverse drummers, such as David Garibaldi and Thomas Pridgen, will perform.
- San Jose, CA (1888PressRelease) July 03, 2010 - Enter Music Publishing, publishers of hip/drum percussion magazines worldwide, will host a "Hit Man Mania" Drumming Event. Taking place on August 13th, DRUM! Magazine will rhyme and roll what may be the biggest drumming event to roll in Northern California.
On that day, drummers will descend on the San Jose Repertory Theatre in the heart of Silicon Valley to witness three of the world's most exciting drummers - extreme drumming sensation Marco Minnemann, Tower Of Power funk master David Garibaldi, and former Mars Volta wunderkind Thomas Pridgen - for an evening of mind-blowing drum clinics and performances. As a bonus, all attendees will receive free tickets to the George Clinton concert that follows the DRUM! Magazine Rhythm Night.
The DRUM! Magazine Rhythm Night will help kick off the 21st Annual AT&T San Jose Jazz Festival, one of the largest open-air jazz festivals in the world. SJJF closes off the entire downtown area, erects multiple outdoor stages, and draws up to 100,000 music lovers who converge from Friday afternoon to Sunday evening to enjoy jazz, blues, salsa, Latin, R&B, electronica, and many other forms of contemporary music.
All revenue generated from DRUM! Magazine Rhythm Night will be donated to Richie Hayward, founding drummer for seminal American roots-rock band Little Feat. In 2009, Hayward announced that he had contracted severe liver disease. Since then he has battled the condition without the benefit of health insurance. In addition to revenue generated by ticket sales, a wide range of drum and percussion companies have contributed percussion gear for a raffle to be drawn at the event, with proceeds also donated to Hayward's fund.
Tickets for DRUM! Magazine Rhythm Night are $15 in advance and $20 at the door, and are available at drummagazine.com/rhythmnight. Cosponsors for DRUM! Magazine Rhythm Night include Audix, DW, Evans, Hardcase, Remo, Sabian, Shure, Vic Firth, Yamaha, and Zildjian.
