The death last week from liver cancer of OC music icon Chris Gaffney hasn't quashed the benefit show for him that had been planned for the Doll Hut this Sunday, April 27. The day-long bill is still on, though now it's unfortunately become a memorial, with proceeds going towards Gaffney's family.
Here's all the info, from a press release sent out by former Doll Hut owner Linda Jemison. Sounds like it'll be a great wake:
“Former owner of Linda’s Doll Hut, Linda Jemison and Hacienda Brothers Guitar player, Dave Gonzales have put together a benefit in honor of the memory of Chris Gaffney. The show will feature a wide range of music. There will be a BBQ on the patio and a limited amount of vintage Linda's Doll Hut shirts will be for sale. (Proceeds going to Chris's memorial fund)
Cover Charge $10.00
All proceeds will go to the Chris Gaffney Memorial Fund
