Much like my pals, The Nadas, my hometown bore the brunt of the recent midwestern floods. Lives lost or irreversibly altered aren’t that uncommon for these folks–they’ve survived much worse over the years and are as resilient as they come. Still, in times like this they need a helping hand.

The guys from Authentic Records are doing their best to help put Iowa back together:

Announcing The Authentic Records’ Unsanctioned & Uncensored Hy-Vee Triathlon After Party & Benefit Show. Join us after the big race (Sunday, June 22) at AK’s Beaverdale in Des Moines, Iowa.

Proceeds from sales of Benjamin’s brand-new CD, “The Invention Of Everything Else,” an Authentic Records silent auction, a forthcoming charity EP, plus cash donations will all benefit the United Way of Central Iowa. Details:

June, 22 8pm-12am
AK O’Connors
4050 Urbandale Ave
Beaverdale, Iowa

Benjamin Wagner
Josh Davis
Tony Bohnenkamp
Fat Andy’s Will Peterson & Jim Stockberger

It’s worth the time folks…
