Video: Iraq N' Roll Benefit October 23rd, 2010





The Iraqi Student Project is a great charity organization that tries to right some of the very real and personal wrongs of war. Specifically they raise money for displaced Iraqi students so that they may receive an education for free here in the states. Last October there was a benefit held at the Metro Gallery and it featured the talents of Dustin Wong, Romantic States, INEVERYROOM, and Yeveto. The evening went well and everyone enjoyed themselves. I finally have the video to post. Thanks to Mika Sam for organizing it and being great. Huge thanks to David Carter for the audio. David is a five-star taper, and far more diligent than I am at getting track listings and packaging his live audio sets properly. Bmore Musically Informed posted the full Dustin set here a couple months ago.  Check out the Baltimore chapter of the Iraqi Student Project here.
