Support local musicians & their health - HAAM benefit day!

Besides it being National Taco Day, today in Austin is HAAM Benefit Day too!
Go out and support the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians by hitting up any or all of the businesses in Austin that are donating a portion of proceeds to HAAM to continue to provide Austin musicians affordable and no-cost health benefits.  Many musicians who support and/or benefit from HAAM services are playing around town today in support for the organization, so I recommend you heading out today and buy some beer and/or food at the venues, restaurants, and stores to make your contribution.

I plan catching Quiet Company, Akina Adderly and the Vintage Playboys, Robet Ellis and Reckless Kelly in the parking lot of Waterloo Records beginning at 4:30pm this afternoon. More locals such as Toni Price, Dana Falconberry, Not in the Face, and even Opposite Day are playing too.  Check out the listing of times and venues here.

Also, Google Places is having a nice little shindig down at B.D. Riley's that includes a free drink when you show the staff your Google Places app on your smartphone or Ipad.  Be sure to download that here if you ain't got it already so you can have your first drink on their tab.

I'm gonna work this in too - $1 Lonestars at The Liberty on the East side. Drink and contribute! Support your local musicians and their health too!
