On Saturday, September 6, Rock Band Live Tour artists Panic At The Disco and Plain White T's will be putting on a special performance to bring awareness to HIV/AIDS at House of Blues in Los Angeles. General admission is $50.00 for all ages, with proceeds going to Lifebeat. Those in attendance will also get a sneak peak at Rock Band 2 before it hits store shelves.
"MTV is proud to be teamed up with Lifebeat again on this year's VMA weekend as we support their long-standing commitment to HIV/AIDS education and prevention," said Tim Rosta, SVP of Integrated Marketing at MTV. "We have always seen the Lifebeat benefit as one of the cornerstones of the weekend, and this year's event is no exception."
"By bringing Rock Band and Lifebeat together, we hope to unleash the power of one of the biggest video game launches this year to benefit a fantastic and worthy cause," Paul DeGooyer, Senior Vice President of Electronic Games and Music for MTV Networks Music & Logo Group.
"HIV/AIDS remains a major epidemic in America with over 56,000 new cases diagnosed each year, and half of those infections occurring in Americans under 25, making it more important than ever to reach young audiences," said John Cannelli, Executive Director of Lifebeat. "This annual event offers a great opportunity to further our goals and mission."
Rock Band 2 will release September 2008 for Xbox 360, with versions for PS2, PS3 and Wii coming in the following months.
