Mayflower to play benefit show this weekend in Brooklyn!

MAYFLOWER are part of an incredible benefit show taking place this weekend. Teddy sent me over the info and I felt it was pertinent to send it on to you guys to help garner a little support for the cause. The details are below:

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th, 2010

RUINER (one of their final shows!)
ACHILLES
ANOTHER BREATH
SUCH GOLD
MAYFLOWER

PARTY XPO 929 Broadway
This show will be $10.
There WILL be advance tickets available in the near future!
7pm doors and ALL AGES

"In May of 2010, Jake Stults was involved in a skateboarding accident that caused severe brain trauma. He spent two days on life support before he was taken off it on May 9th (Mother's Day). He was 31 years old, and like most punks didn't have health insurance. Jake was known for being a rad guy, as well as playing in the final line-up of De La Hoya. The proceeds from this show will be donated to Jake's wife Irene and his family to help pay for his hospital stay and medical expenses."

I would hope that any of you guys in the area that read this will try and make it out. While the situation is a sad one, and the price of healthcare in this country has gotten extremely out of hand, it's also inspiring. Our community of broke punks still has the heart to put on shows like this to help out our friends and their families. Go help out and see a killer show while you're at it.
