"The Araya Family and Friends Benefit Concert For Anamaria Araya" is this Friday, May 29th in Long Beach, Ca.
Anamaria has ovarian cancer. We've organized this concert as a way of helping her to pay for her medical care, show her support and at the same time we'll get to play and hear good music played by many of the Araya family musicians and good friends.
Hope you can come out. If you're not able to make it we'd appreciate any donation you can spare. Thanks so much.

An amazingly great effort put forth by Linda and Anna with panels that were packed the whole day so that we didn't get much time to say HEY!!! THIS IS GREAT!!! JPF OC, may you know that even if you think nobody notices all you do on behalf of the community (in L.A. too), we do appreciate you! Many blessings during this holiday season and all year long in 2009.
