PLEASE HELP CHRISTCHURCH:
Christchurch musicians are hurting. Many events in the area have been cancelled. These guys and gals need your support. Musicians often do not get the benefits accorded other folk through Govt assistance packages. Please make the effort to book a Christchurch act for your event. Often acts are offering deals to get work.
