Today, Arco Iris performed to raise money for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. We played a 15-minute set in front of the Guildhall at 12:30 pm, then paraded around to the corner of Market and Sidney Streets to do another 15-minute set. It was the biggest band I ever played: 45 players, plus three bucket-holding kids looking cute and collecting donations! (Yes it does pay to look cute.) All the money collected are going to Médecins Sans Frontières and Oxfam Haiti relief efforts.

We raised... more than £1,000!!!
