Maximo Park Charity Gig On Sale Now

added 04 April 2008 at 15.29

The music extravangaza is taking place at Kentish Town's infamous venue on May 28, with Maximo Park heading the bill.

Paul Smith has co. organised the event - which is set to raise money for The Royal Marsden Hospital and the No Surrender Charitable Trust - after a close friend, Jason Boas, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and given just 6-12 months to live.

They're also hosting it in memory of Claudia Anselmetti, who died from cancer three years ago.

Tickets cost £20 and are on sale now from the Xfm Xchange on 0871 222 1049 or from the Xfm Online Ticket Shop.

Smith commented, "When you know someone is up against cancer it makes sense to give them your full support...What we do best is play concerts and we intend to give all profit from our gig at The Forum to help rebuild the cancer unit [at The Royal Marsden]..."

Check back soon for exclusive interviews with all the bands involved here at xfm.co.uk.
