Heart of a Hero: firefighter benefit concert to be held in December

We know a good cause when we see one…

The California wildfires that have dominated the news recently remind us of the sacrifices the brave men and women of the firehouse do for us everyday.

Last year, the First Annual “Heart of a Hero” Benefit Concert in southern California raised over $14,000 for the five families of the fallen firefighters in last year’s Esperanza, Ca. wildfire. And thanks to the help of country artists such as Big & Rich, Lonestar, Charlie Daniels, Brooks & Dunn, Wynonna and others, 100% of the money went to these families.

The Second Annual Heart of a Hero Benefit Concert and Auction will be held on December 1st and, once again, all the money will go to the Wildland Firefighters Foundation (this was set in motion WELL before these last devistating wildfires in California).

Your support will benefit the families of fallen firefighters.

Video Vault – The Cult

Having had the good fortune to speak to The Cult’s lead singer, Ian Astbury, earlier this afternoon (I’d originally been scheduled to talk with guitarist Billy Duffy, but, what, like talking to Astbury instead is complaint-worthy?), I thought I’d favor ESDM’s readers with a video from the album he declares to be his favorite of all the band’s works. As is so often the case, it turned out to be one of their least successful, but one should always be true to oneself. I mean, the label won’t buy into it, but, still, you’ll feel better in the long run.
