The Welch Boys are playing their 2nd annual benefit for their Drummer Ron Holbrook. Ron Passed away in August of 2007. The benefit will take place over two nights on Saturday 2/21 and Sunday 2/22 at Great Scott's , 1222 Commonwealth Avenue in Allston.

The Welch Boys will be headlining both nights.
Bands playing the Saturday show will be Shiner 8, Mark Lind and the Unloved (Ducky Boys), The Ashers ( members of The Unseen) , Drago ( members of Darkbuster) ,Nowhere USA, and The Bloodshot Hooligans.
The Sunday show will feature Refuse Resist, The Scars, The Spoilers, Burning Streets, the Beantown Boozehounds and Far from Finished.
There will be an auction, and plenty of great Boston punk rock music. The bands start up at 9:00 each night. Doors at 7:30.
The first annual benefit happened last year at Obrien's, and it was a sellout. This year, we are moving to the larger capacity Great Scott's in Allston. These nights should prove to be a great occasion to escape the February chills and celebrate the thriving underground culture that is Boston punk rock. Come celebrate our scene and contribute to a great cause.
