Music Rising
Sunday, December 17, 2006
Hi All: Wanted to let you all know that we are swiftly moving through Phase II of Music Rising and helping several churches and schools in the Gulf Region. Its unbelievable how many people still need help. Did you know that most of the churches that were destroyed in the Katrina aftermath are not even fully functional yet. We are replacing instruments so the choirs can sing again and the people in the parish can have a place to sing their praises. We are supporting the musical instrument needs of schools so the children can not only hear the sweet sounds of music but benefit from all those wonderful things that come from music education. On another note the Hard Rock has stepped in to help and will begin selling the Music Rising t-shirts with proceeds benefitting Music Rising. Over 70 locations worldwide will begin selling the t-shirt you saw Edge wore on the Grammys 2006 telecast, during the pre-game show at the Louisiana Superdome in September and throughout various other performances including the re-opening of the Preservation Jazz Hall in New Orleans. Stay tuned for more news on this blog. And a special thanks to all of you who have taken it upon yourself to have events and programs in your local areas benefitting the cause. Have a blessed Holiday Season from all of your friends at Music Rising!

Thanks for posting this! If anyone goes to an HRC, I recommend this holiday drink...I don't remember what it was called, but it had a candy cane in it! Um...I think it was warm and a cider...I can't remember. But it tasted gorgeous!
 
Hmmm, Would they be sold in Australia?

I think there's a Hard Rock at the Crown Casino, But Australia seems to miss out on stuff like that :huh:
 
NZ misses out too....never mind I ordered mine last week anyway from the website.....should be here any day!!! :hyper:

That U2 Vertigo Tour in Hawai'i concert T-shirt wearing out already?
The Hard Rock Cafe in Waikiki is selling a benefit tee — designed in a partnership between U2 guitarist The Edge's Music Rising campaign and Hard Rock International — exclusively. Crafted by award-winning designer Bill Cathcart and sported by The Edge at last year's Grammy Awards and various Vertigo Tour stops, the $30 T-shirt features the winged Music Rising logo on a black background. (Music Rising was co-founded by The Edge in 2005 in an effort to replace musical instruments lost by Gulf Coast musicians in that year's devastating hurricanes.)

The limited edition shirt is also available at other Hard Rock Cafes in Hawai'i and online at http://www.hardrock.com/ Proceeds from the T-shirt's sales benefit charity.

If you actually went and looked at the HRC site, you would see that it is a new one. The HRC logo is on the back collar of the shirt.

And keep in mind that this shirt is for charity. Frankly, I don't think it should be a limited edition. Make and sell as many as you can! I already have one from Fanfire but I will buy the HRC version as well.

The shirt, designed by award winning designer William Cathcart and worn by The Edge for numerous performances, has become a symbol of support for the many devastated by the hurricanes and those who continue to struggle.

January kicks off the sale of the limited-edition shirt at Hard Rock Cafes and Hotels around the country and on www.hardrock.com/rockshop, with proceeds from the sale of the shirt benefiting charity. This striking T-shirt was worn by The Edge during U2's performance at the 2006 Grammy Awards and features the winged Music Rising logo on a black background.

Hard Rock is thrilled to align with such a musical legend for a cause that's important to us all," said Hamish Dodds, president and CEO of Hard Rock International. The preservation and advancement of great music is not only a priority for Hard Rock, but a necessity for the revitalization of New Orleans."

"My visits to the Gulf Region gave me a firsthand look at the devastation which tragically destroyed the lives of thousands. Providing replacement instruments through Music Rising has not only helped professional musicians but also the churches and schools in need through Music Rising's second phase," said The Edge. "Music Rising is dedicated to helping regain one of the Gulf Coast's greatest assets, its music."

Since it was established in 1971, Hard Rock has been committed to a wide variety of philanthropic causes and activities around the world. With its own Signature Series program, and through various rock star partnerships, concerts, benefits and raffles, Hard Rock International has helped to raise millions for a wide variety of organizations, such as The Dr. Susan Love Breast Cancer Foundation, the Elton John AIDS Foundation and World Hunger Year.

Skjuls and I went to the Hard Rock in Baltimore today and saw these Music Rising shirts.

They are not Edun shirts nor are they exactly the same as the ones bought from U2.com.............. Made in Thailand (not that we're complaning, skjuls is half-Thai!)

they are still cool and all but they are different!! Also, cheaper than the U2.com ones..... $24!!
