Be There: Extreme Sports, Rock, and Fundraising

With Bang Camaro and the Marc-Andre Belliveau Band
For Labels Are for Jars

$20, Tickets
TGR Official Site
Labels Are for Jars

Teton Gravity Research is in town, combining extreme snow sports, massive rock, and philanthropy. TGR, as they call themselves, will be screening "Lost and Found," which is a compilation of what the company calls the "sickest skiing and riding all over the world." Imagine a greatest-hits reel for the Winter X Games.

The first 700 people to show up will get free lift tickets to Mount Snow in Vermont, and the Marc-Andre Belliveau Band will perform before the movie. Belliveau is also an avid skier who was paralyzed in 2006. He has returned to the slopes in a Sit Ski, and his story will be part of "Lost and Found."

If you're not convinced that you'd have a good time watching people act like they are in a Mountain Dew commercial, consider this--Bang Camaro, Jimmy Fallon's favorite band (for better or for worse), will go on the stage at 9:30.

Last, but not least, the show will help benefit the cleverly named Labels Are for Jars foundation, whose T-shirt sales provides food for those who need it. Labels Are for Jars will unveil a snazzy new "Rock Star" shirt at tonight's event, and the money raised will go straight to the Cor Unum Meal Center in Lawrence.
