The Whitehalls added to Silicon Valley Rocks Line up – Dec 9 – Great American Music Hall (SF)!
Oct 22, 2009 Shows
The Whitehalls are pleased to announce we’ve been selected to join the line up for a very cool benefit show – Silicon Valley Rocks!
Silicon Valley Rocks! 2009, taking place on Dec. 9, will bring together the Valley’s tech community – from VCs and entrepreneurs to bloggers and software developers – to raise money for Music in Schools Today (MuST), a Bay Area non-profit that seeks to rescue music programs from budget cuts.
The showcase will once again feature Silicon Valley bands and original rockers!
Ticket sales are open now at http://svrocks09.eventbrite.com
The show will be held at the famous Great American Music Hall, home to indie music gigs and hall of famers such the Grateful Dead, Duke Ellington, Modest Mouse, and Van Morrison.
