The reason for this
Sophie's Choice fundraising event been set up is down to one little poster I found myself reading in the early hours on a Sunday morning in the halls of the childrens hospital in Crumlin. On the poster there was a few short words;
'Please donate any spare crayons to the hospital. There isn't enough for the kids'
Been parent that has spent a lot of time in the hospital since my little daughter was born, I knew then I had to do something and here we are. Last year I raised funds to buy every child that spent Christmas in Crumlin hospital a present which was anything from PSP's, Nintendo DS's, Dora The Explorer down to a babies rattler.
On Saturday, September 20th , a host of Ireland's finest musicians, including Red Kid, Penfold DM, The Hot Sprockets, Lisa McLaughlin, Bill Coleman, Phil Kerrigan and the renowned *Headphone Disco, will gather in the
Tivoli Theatre to raise €40,000 for Our Lady's Hospital for Sick Children in Crumlin. The concert, Sophie's Choice, will help raise money to enable the redesigning of a parents and family area in the hospital. This much needed space will provide an area for parents who currently have no where to relax, reflect or simply recharge while their sick child is sleeping, or in theatre.
Performing on the night:
Red Kid
Penfold DM
The Hot Sprockets
Lisa Mc Laughlin
Bill Coleman
Phil Kerrigan
Paddy Sheridan (DJ 1 of Headphone Disco)
Club NME (DJ 2 of Headphone Disco)
*Headphone Disco: On the night Paddy Sheridan and a Club NME Dj will be Dj'in at the same time but play totally different styles of music. Paddy will be delivering his style of house music/dirty disco on channel 1, which will be a guaranteed crowd pleaser but if are more interested in throwing some moves around the dance floor to a soul enhancing mash up of the best in new music {think Foals, Crystal Castles, Fight Like Apes & Vampire Weekend}, while also saluting the influential masters of the past {think Bowie, The Clash, Joy Division & The Stone Roses}. switch your headphones over to the Club NME Dj on channel 2 and feel free to sing at the top of your lungs!
What is a Headphone Disco?: A simple concept with a spectacular affect. Take a room full of clubbers, arm them all with a set of wireless headphones, have two separate DJ's broadcast to them live via two dedicated FM channels and watch the utterly surreal spectacle that unfolds. A mass of humanity, throwing moves, pulling shapes and singing along to what appears to everyone else to be... complete silence! Welcome to the hugely popular phenomenon that is, 'Headphone Disco'.
