Blink-182 Announces LA Wildfires Benefit Show
Blink-182 has announced a benefit show in February that will raise funds for organizations helping those impacted by the LA wildfires.
The benefit show will take place on February 13 at the Hollywood Palladium and will see Blink-182 share the bill with Alkaline Trio, which features former Blink-182 member Matt Skiba. Needless to say, the show could lead to some great jamming with both bands.
Proceeds from the show will benefit the following organizations: LAFD Foundation, California Fire Foundation, Anti-Recidivism Coalition, and the Pasadena Human Society.
As of publishing, there are no details about whether this show will be live-streamed anywhere, but it seems like a great opportunity to raise more money for the many impacted by the LA wildfires.
