Dimebash 2010: All-Star Concert to Benefit 'Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund'
In the giving spirit of the late, great Dimebag Darrell, Dimebash 2010—taking place October 29th at the world-famous Key Club on the Sunset Strip—will be giving back to not only the rock community, but to the global fight against cancer, as all proceeds from the show including ticket sales, raffles, merchandise and drink specials will benefit the Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund. In addition to these charitable items, a DVD of the event will be shot and recorded for near future release with proceeds from the disc's sales also going towards the fund.
