The Skids Offer their Support of Music Rising

Some great news from The Skids in London: Many of you know that U2 and Green Day performed "The Saints Are Coming" at the historic re-opening of the Superdome in Louisiana this past September. The song was cover of the song originally recorded by the Skids. Since the event, the Skids have gotten back together and produced a 30th Anniversary show in Scotland to huge audiences. Their manager reports that all entry fees paid by the guests will benefit Music Rising and has since informed us that the band will be sending the donation to Music Rising to continue the campaign's focus of helping churches and schools in the area. Thank you to the Skids!
