I’ve wanted to help, but I mean -- where, when, and how?</p><p class="paragraph" data-pnum="2">Dustin Lothspeich, talent buyer at Hillcrest venue/bar the Merrow (and SoundDiego associate editor), decided to create an awesome opportunity for folks to lend a musical helping hand by setting up not one, or two -- but three -- Harvey relief benefit shows. Twelve local bands, three nights, and a $10 cover per show that acts as a donation to the <a href="https://www.unitedway.org/hurricane-harvey/hurricane-harvey-fund" mce_href="https://www.unitedway.org/hurricane-harvey/hurricane-harvey-fund">United Way Harvey Recovery Fund</a>.</p><p class="paragraph" data-pnum="3">“When Harvey struck, my first thought, like a lot of people's, was what can I do to help?” Lothspeich told me. “Nobody knew how bad the damage would be; we still don't. You feel a little helpless when something of that magnitude happens. But my main reaction was to put together some sort of fundraiser. Since I'm the talent buyer at the Merrow, I have a venue at my disposal and I knew what dates we had available to put something on. So I made a general request on Facebook to see if any local bands would even be interested in volunteering to play. Needless to say, the response I got was faster and bigger than I even expected.”</p><p class="paragraph" data-pnum="4">The first fundraiser, which takes place on <a href="http://bit.ly/2vGop6s" mce_href="http://bit.ly/2vGop6s">Friday, Sept. 8</a>, features Sights and Sages, Noble War, Fashion Jackson, and Daytrip.

The venue's last fundraiser is <a href="http://bit.ly/2eAoWPT" mce_href="http://bit.ly/2eAoWPT">Wednesday, Sept. 20</a>, and will include sets by the High Rolling Loners, the Anomaly, Jesse Lee (from the Paragraphs), and Annette Conlon.

"So she's spearheaded that part of it and deserves all the credit in the world. As of right now, we've received donations from Small Bar, Big Front Door Deli, the Belly Up, Cow Records, Re-Animated Records, Refill Coffee Shop, Vom Fass, Crest Cafe, Paramount Pictures, Hoffers Cigar Bar -- and many others are in the works.
