Tapes 'n Tapes are among those playing the Transmission Live Bridge Benefit on September 23 at Minneapolis' Fine Line Music Cafe. The show is a benefit for Mercedes Gorden, local friend of the band Jake Rudh's fiancée who suffered ankle, shin, and spine injuries in the I-35 bridge collapse of August 1.
Admission to the benefit requires a $15 minimum donation at the door, and there will also be a silent auction. A portion of the night's proceeds will go to the American Red Cross' Minnesota chapter, with the rest going to help Gorden toward a speedy recovery.
For more information on Gorden's condition and how to help, visit the website Rudh set up for her here.
