In support of 2008 ROCK AGAINST DIABETES Charity Concert

HOLLYWOOD, CA (May 1, 2008) - Guns N Roses guitarist Ron Thal (aka Bumblefoot) has committed himself to this years Rock Against Diabetes event by orchestrating an All Star Band composed of top metal/rock artists of the last two decades.

"I want to help bring attention, awareness, and hopefully get some people thinking about what they can do to prevent diabetes, or how they can lend a hand to someone living with it" explains Thal. "I have been reaching out to musicians to form a group that hasn't ever played together before, something very special just for this one night. This is an important event, and it's a privilege to be able to participate.

Participants of the All Star Band, yet to be named will be announced once they commit to the project. More information on the All Star Band, as well as current and any other lineup changes can be found at www.rockagainstdiabetes.org.


This follows on from Bumblefoot announcement that he will appear at the Chiller Theatre toy, model and film expo at the Hilton Hotel in Parsippany, New Jersey the first weekend in May (May 2-4). Bumblefoot says,
"[I] will be doing a little jamming that Saturday night. Gonna have a table set up with some merch — anything ya pay over the price for each item will all be donated to multiple sclerosis research. Come say hello and show your support."
