Matt Sorum’s ‘Adopt the Arts’ Iconic Rockstar Concert Hollywood, CA.

The front row at the Adopt The Arts (ATA) concert was a Marshall-stack-powered tsunami of intense bass and sonic power!  While so many have debated whether ‘rock is dead’, fans ultimately just want to be moved and have an experience, and a great rock ‘n roll show is still an experience.   The rockstar lineup at the ATA show brought such an experience and an emphatic reminder that rock ‘n roll is alive and well!

The sound of music turned to a call for donations as Sorum set aside his drumsticks at intermissions and hosted a live auction featuring memorabilia, art, jewelry, and autographed guitars.  The centerpiece of the auction, Joe Perry of the legendary rock band Aerosmith autographed guitar, which sold for $11,000. The benefit raised over $100,000 for ATA, so the evening was a huge success!

The concert also honored Rock ‘N Roll Hall Of Fame inductees Glenn Hughes and Robin Zander, best known for their roles in Deep Purple and Cheap Trick. Adopt The Arts.   “COME TOGETHER” EPIC FINALE PERFORMANCE! Written by: Ann Lauren
