Candy From Strangers reuniting for AIDS benefit

Saint Frank City received notice that local rock hero Pauli Gray is reunit­ing Can­dy from Strangers for an AIDS ben­e­fit show this Sat­ur­day (June 30^th 2007) at the Hotel Utah! All monies go direct­ly to fif­teen kids in Africa and the incred­i­ble woman who adopt­ed them all. Gray says, «we’ve been doing a year­ly AIDS ben­e­fit for nine years now so the reunion is on.»

The line­up:

1. Dave Dal­ton (Cell Block Five)
2. Pauli Gray (White Trash Debs/Candy from Strangers)
3. Cliff Trues­dell (Black Furies)
4. Kari­na Denike (Stara Nova/DHC)
5. Jes­si­ca Grace
6. Can­dy from Strangers reunion
7. Exit Sign‑a rock opera
8. The Wren Project

Plus secret guests. Oooh, mysterious!

Do I sound like a shill for the band? Well, San Fran­cis­co just has­n’t been the same since Can­dy From Strangers dis­band­ed. Yeah, we’ve got­ten to see Pauli work his mag­ic with the White Trash Debu­tantes but some­how it’s just not the same. Come on out if you’ve missed out on Can­dy From Strangers: you’ll be in for a treat.

Hotel Utah, 4^th and Bryant SF
Sat­ur­day June 30^th 8:30pm

$8 at the door, or pay what you can. Don’t you dare cheap out on kids with AIDS. That just would­n’t be cool.
