520 Etc.: Knox At Night Benefit
Downtown Knoxville is the place to be tonight, for sure! Practically every venue in the Old City, on Gay St. and Market Square is offering up some grand entertainment for a great cause: to raise money for cancer research and treatment.
Knoxville's own Laith Kilaney, who has been fighting his own personal battle with cancer, has inspired our community to take some action in the fight against the disease. Most every musician in town either knows Laith or knows of him. Even those who only know him casually think of him as a friend, so it's no wonder folks came out of the woodwork to help him when he announced his idea for tonight's benefit.
520 contributer, Phil Pollard, will be wandering the streets tonight (and just how is that different from other nights?), speaking with musicians and supporters alike about the Knox at Night benefit shows. Be sure to check back with us on Friday to read about the event as seen by Mr. Pollard!
Here's the official poster listing all the performers and venues. Hand $5 over to any of the participating venues and you're automatically covered for all the shows listed. Now that's a small price to pay for making a big impact! See you out there!
