About me:
RETRO69 AND EMPLOYEES OF ASCAP TO HOST A MONTEREY INTERNATIONAL POP FESTIVAL 1967 TRIBUTE CONCERT ON JUNE 19 TO BENEFIT "SAVE ONE PERSON. SAVE THE WORLD", A PROJECT OF THE MEANINGFUL LIFE CENTER.
New York, NY, Thursday, April 17, 2008: On June 16, 2008 Retro69 will host a Monterey Pop 1967 tribute concert to benefit Save One Person. Save The World, A Project Of The Meaningful Life Center.
SAVE ONE PERSON. SAVE THE WORLD is a new non-denominational consortium under the banner of The Meaningful Life Center (a non-profit organization) that began as an awareness media campaign following 9-11 to show how helping just one individual can help others and maybe ultimately Save A Life. The more people who are able to learn about a person in need through a variety of media outlets (TV, radio, Internet and print) the more likely somebody will be alerted who is able and willing to help.
Founded in 2001 as a response to the loss of more than 3,000 lives in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Save 1 Person began as a Web site (www.saveoneperson. org) that is a clearinghouse that brings together people in need with people who are willing to help. Now, Save 1 person also has placed TV, radio and Internet advertisements asking people to help by directly contacting those in need. If terrorists can destroy, we can build and create.
Imagine, for example, that Sally, a mother with five children, has Leukemia and needs to find a person suitable for a bone marrow transplant immediately or she will die within weeks. How is she more likely to get the help she receives? If the local newspaper in the Illinois town she lives in runs an article about her, only 30,000, 40,000 or even 50,000 people would be alerted to her need for a donor. But what if Sally's story reaches people living in cities throughout the U.S. and the world by appearing as a newsbreak on television and radio networks in major media markets across the globe. Needless to say, the more people that are aware of Sally's plight, the more people are likely to get tested and the more likely Sally is to find a match.
So far, matches initiated by Save 1 Person have come to the aid of people in a variety of situations:
· A young girl from Britain with cancer received donations to help her fund a trip to a U.S. hospital for her treatment.
· People were tested for bone marrow matches to aid a man from Long Island with Leukemia
· Donations helped keep a NYC woman from losing her home.
The concert will closely follow the songs of the bands that performed at the June 1967 Monterey Pop Festival event. Artists to be covered at the event may include The Association, Lou Rawls , Johnny Rivers, Simon & Garfunkel, The Animals, Canned Heat , Big Brother & The Holding Company , Country Joe & The Fish , Al Kooper , The Butterfield Blues Band , Quicksilver Messenger Service , The Steve Miller Band , The Electric Flag, Moby Grape, Hugh Masekela , The Byrds , Laura Nyro , Jefferson Airplane, Booker T & The MG's , Otis Redding, Ravi Shankar, The Blues Project , Buffalo Springfield , The Who ,The Grateful Dead, The Jimi Hendrix Experience and The Mamas & The Papas.
The Benefit will take place on June 19, 2008 at The Triad located at 158 West 72nd Street between Columbus Avenue and Central Park West. ( http://www.triadnyc .com ) The music will run non-stop from 6:00 to 11:00. There is a $10 minimum donation. All musicians are performing for free, and Peter Martin, owner of the Triad will assure that all money collected at the door will go to the charity.
