bit about Rock Into Inclusion.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Yes, so this is going to be our second annual
Rock and two Inclusion. What we do is we host
a rock fundraising concert and the money that we raise
from the event helps us help the children and the
people of the coastal band area. We've done work in Alice, Corpus, Rockport,
just all over and this events what helps us do
all the work that we do in the coastal bend.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Now, I remember last year you guys had for the headliner,
Shattered Sun. This year it's Zombie King, who's actually a
great band that's been around for quite some time. Tell
me about some of the bands that are performing.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Yeah, so we're gonna have Zombie King as our headliner.
Mancos leaal of Shattered Sun is one that helps us
kind of get this lineup together. Robs Town they're going
to be our headliner. We have Fistful of Metal that's
going to be our co headliner. That's led by Tony Gomez.
If you all know him in the rock world, you'll
know that he does a lot of different bands, a
lot of different things. Fistful of Metal is just a
eighties nineties rock cover band, lots of fun stuff for everyone.

(01:16):
Before them, we're going to have Tild going on, really
fun band, great music, great sound. We're going to have
Plunt the Sleep as well. We might have a surprise
guest with them. We don't know quite yet, so I'm
not going to say who, but it might happen. And
then we also have fall in Fears, which is our
band that's from the Alice area, which is also my hometown.
