Launch Concert
Date: March 12th, 2010
Location: Los Angeles, California
Venue:House of Blues
Our 'beta concert,' we introduced our "Unity For Foundation" non-profit at the world famous:
House of Blues
Sunset Strip
Los Angeles, California
Friday, March 12, 2010
On the 12th of March, 2010 at Hollywood's House of Blues the Unity For Foundation introduced itself to the world. Joining with international musicians, celebrities and committed individuals we used this eve not as a fundraiser, but rather to introduce our domestic "UnityFor.org" tour series, and to plant the seeds for our planned 2012 Unity For Peace concert, tentatively to premiere at the intersection of Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
The concert featured an All-Star Band including Jonathan Mover, Scott Page, Cal Bennett, Martin Guigui and Corey Britz, with invited special guests Ellis Hall, Marcus Miller and Mos Def. Gibson auctioned a Vintage Guitar during the event. Check out below to get a peak at the event in our first post-concert web scrapbook.

The collection of great musicians was a lot of fun to experience. From Tower of Power's Ellis Gray, to Scott Page, the famous sax man for Pink Floyd, Toto and others, these rock greats ripped up the stage for hours! |
