Velvet Revolver Benefit

08/29/07
. (PR) Velvet Revolver's visit to the Minneapolis-St. Paul area this Wednesday in connection with their Libertad album will include a very special charity event in addition to their headlining performance at the Xcel Energy Center.

The band will be holding a fundraising event at the Fine Line Music Caf� (318 First Avenue North, Minneapolis) after the show in honor of drummer Matt Sorum's brother Daniel who passed away earlier this year at age 11 from brain-stem cancer. Proceeds from the event will go to the Daniel J. Sorum Memorial Scholarship Fund, which will benefit students at the school he attended: The Willmar Community Christian School.

Tickets for this VIP event--which will include a silent auction with items from Velvet Revolver and tour mates Alice In Chains--will be sold for $100 at the door and next to the VR merch booth at the band�s show at Xcel Energy Center earlier that evening. Doors for the benefit open at 11:30 PM.
