Chi Benefit show Tomorrow

November 18, 2009

There are two benefit shows for Deftones’ bassist Chi Cheng, who was severely injured in a car accident and is currently in a semi-conscious state. I will be playing a song with the guys on Thursday night. If you are in town tomorrow, come to The Avalon for an amazing (and very unique) show.

    Wow! Thx so much for the info! :D I thought you wouldn’t post anything about it cause my comment to the previous post was made kinda late so I thought you wouldn’t see it…Thank you :)

    Really my thoughts are with his family and friends…I could never believe that these kinda of things can actually happen to ppl until it happened to my aunt :( She’s in a comma now for the last 3 weeks :(

    Anyways, thx again for the info, have a good time :)

    PS. I heard you’re gonna play bass in the show. Is it true?

    Each one of those sentences represents a very painful stabbing. 1) Love Deftones 2) Can’t Support 3) Not in Cali 4) Amazing and Very Unique show. ::cries::

    I hope we can watch it at youtube or something!

    Totally Agree with Miss ShadowerLiltani …

    Oh…Really sorry for him, and wish you a good performance (as usual!)
    OFF TOPIC: Hey Mike, Have you ever heard of the band “Vanilla Ninja”? They’re 3 Estonian girls, a pop rock/hard rock band…Check ‘em out if you had some free time, I recommend you the songs “Blue Tattoo” & “Liar”…Hope you like ‘em!

  15. AustinW on November 18, 2009 at 4:17 pm

    Mike, it’s great that you’re doing this :D
    But how much are the tickets for the show?
    I’d love to help this guy recover =)

    I am a person who likes to call it as it is. Notice first off how few people have left comments. While I have sympathy and empathy for what Chi Cheng has gone through, but at the same time, I find your involvement in this benefit concert a little hypocritical. Maybe it’s because of the Music for Relief blog you posted yesterday, along with the fact that Cheng is the bassist for the Deftones, a very well known band whose members don’t seem down and out like a lot of people in this country. Or maybe it’s because I was an atheist at a Christian/Gospel funeral listening to a paster preach a huge tangent about hypocrisy, while forgetting the grieving family and the woman who died of cancer.
