    <title>Donations for Benefit For Izabel Vega</title>
    <link>http://pledgie.com/campaigns/361</link>
    <description>For those of you who cannot make it to the show on Sunday, please donate online here via paypal. Sorry about the short notice, but I only found out about this today! It takes a couple of days for the donations to show up, so if you don't see yours right away, don't worry, it doesn't mean it didn't go through. 

Top musical talent from around Los Angeles will descend upon venerable Hollywood club Safari Sam&#8217;s on Sunday, October 7th for an all-ages evening to benefit 21 month old cancer patient Izabel Vega and her parents, Pablo Vega and Barbara Konwinski of Montevideo, Minnesota.  Izabel has recently been diagnosed with Ewing&#8217;s sarcoma/PNET, a rare cancer that affects bone and soft tissue. All admission proceeds will go directly to Izabel and her family to help get them through this difficult time.  A &#8220;donation jar&#8221; will also be circulated inside Safari Sam&#8217;s for further contributions and information for making donations directly into a family fund will be announced. To read more about Izabel and her family&#8217;s struggle, please visit www.caringbridge.org/visit/izabelvega and www.myspace.com/izabelvega.  

Doors open at 4pm with $10 admission for adults (children 14 years and younger get in free).  DJ Cuz&#8217;n Roy will spin songs throughout the evening and distinguished audience warm-up &#8220;artist&#8221; Todd Carlin will emcee. The night&#8217;s events will include, raffles, special guests and a collection of L.A.&#8217;s finest independent bands contributing their talent at these scheduled times: 

&lt;a href="www.myspace.com/spongebobandthehiseas"&gt;4:30pm    SpongeBob &amp; The Hi-Seas&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="www.myspace.com/thebreakupssuck"&gt;5:30pm   the breakups&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="www.myspace.com/redheads"&gt;6:30pm   Evan Way of The Parson Red Heads&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.theswitchhome.com"&gt;7:30pm   Le Switch&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.imakethissound.com"&gt;8:30pm   I Make This Sound&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.themonolators.com"&gt;9:30pm   The Monolators&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/thehectors"&gt;10:30pm  The Hectors&lt;/a&gt;

The show kicks off at 4:30pm for the kids -- and the kids at heart -- with a special performance by SpongeBob &amp; the Hi-Seas, an all-star group of musicians featuring Tom Kenny (voice of SpongeBob Squarepants) and renowned producer Andy Paley (Brian Wilson, Madonna, Ramones).  Their set will highlight some of the masterful pop songs from their critically acclaimed album The Best Day Ever.  

Izabel has a good chance of surviving her type of cancer, but has a long year of costly treatments and care ahead. The best way to help is through an evening of music and friends.
