If You Go to Just One Show This Weekend … Make It Count — Haiti Benefit Concerts

With Seollal coming up this weekend, the concert scene around much of Korea is quieter than usual. That said, there will be one big event on the 12th that is really worth your support — a benefit for Haiti.
Actually it is not just one show, but three, going on at Jane’s Groove, FF and DGBD. All for just 10,000 won. Jane’s Groove starts at 9pm, then FF at 10 and DGBD at 11. That is a whole lot of music for a very reasonable price. Plus you get to help out some people who really need it.

If you go to more than one show, though, you do have a couple of other good options. Oriental Lucy, over at Ssamzie Space on the 12th, should also be a great show. Especially since it is the release party for Oriental Lucy’s new EP. It starts at 8pm, so even if you go to that show, you should have time to catch a few acts at the Haiti benefits.
On Saturday, the FF show features the first concert by Mineri in several months. They are always worth checking out.
Regardless of the shows your choose, Happy New Year.
