Tunes Against Terror
By Ken Lieck, Fri., Sept. 6, 2002
After much agonizing over what to do for September 11 -- including whether to open at all -- the folks at Emo's decided to team up with other Red River clubs for an extravaganza benefiting Austin firefighters, with the club's doors opening that evening at 6pm. The other venues involved are Beerland, Elysium, and Room 710, with bands featuring various club personnel littering the night's lineup. Bands performing are the Applicators, Honky, Electric Cock, Ritchie Whites, Brewtality Inc., Small Team of Experts, Converters, Confuzation, and Arson Saints. There's also a benefit concert for the American Red Cross on Sept. 11 at the Six of Clubs. The confirmed bands are James Spear, Halloway, Higher Ground, Active Radio and a special guest that will not be announced until Sept. 8.
