A benefit show at Philadelphia's Starlight Ballroom on October 28th for the family of photographer and former Damage vocalist Robby Redcheeks has been announced. Promoter Joe Hardcore commented:

The benefit show was meant to be a special occasion where someone who is loved and cherished has suffered a tragedy or loss that alone he couldn't recover from. Robby Redcheeks lost his mother to cancer a week after This Is Hardcore Fest this summer. He called me when he was at Sound And Fury to tell me he isn't moving to California because she is sick and has been diagnosed with Leukemia. For most of us, the time between those two fests is spent on tour, working hard and always in anxious anticipation from one coast and great fest to another. To think that those few short weeks would be her last was inconceivable.

I am happy to be able to be one of the guys Robby can call on for help and to be able to give it to him. We will be holding a show in Philadelphia, a city that would not have a scene like we do today without the work he put into it 12 years ago.

The show will feature a reunion performance by Floorpunch as well as sets by Blacklisted, Cold World, Have Heart, Bitter End and Let Down. You can find more on the show and the cause at Deathwish.

Floorpunch released an album and a compilation on Equal Vision prior to calling it quits: 1997's Twin Killing and 2003's Fast Times at the Jersey Shore, respectively.
