L.A. Friends: The Monster Energy Ride for Dime DIMEBASH is This Weekend!

With all the trips I make to Los Angeles, I wish I was out there this weekend, because something fantastic is about to take place…

The Monster Energy Ride for Dime Dimebash 2016 – a benefit honoring “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott – is happening TOMORROW, Friday, January 22nd at Lucky Strike Live in Hollywood, California. An intimate live concert event, proceeds Dimebash 2016 will benefit the Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund, an organization that funds cancer research, cancer screenings and various cancer programs while supporting families that have loved ones suffering from the disease. As of this writing, tickets are nearly sold-out – but thanks to Rob Evanoff and my extended Rock Father Family in LA, we’re planning to get you some coverage right here on THE ROCK FATHER Magazine! Check out a teaser of who’s playing…

Dimebash 2016 will feature collaborative performances by hard rock and metal legends, including members of:

“I think the thing that embodies this event and entity is unity; bringing everyone together to celebrate the music played and loved by Darrell and to benefit the foundation of a very beloved man, Mr. Ronnie James Dio,” says Rita Haney, longtime girlfriend of Abbott and the person who knew him best. “Dimebag Darrell was notorious for giving us all so much, in some way, even to this day. So to be able to give back in his name is such an honor. With all of this amazing talent in one place it makes for a damn good celebration! C’mon out and Getcha Pull!”
