40 bands + 40hrs = 40 Hour Famine Benefits!

On the weekend of 16-18 November 2012, forty bands will play for forty hours non-stop to break an Australian record for the longest running music festival, and raise money for World Vision Australia’s projects.

Yes Ma’am is proud to sponsor the first ever 40 Hour Music Marathon hosted by King Street Brewehouse in Darling Harbour. 

Alfredo Malabello, the organiser, is a man of his word who proposed the unique idea earlier this year and has certainly put the energy and time in to make it a reality. “We hope to have 1,500 people attend the 40 Hour Music Marathon at the Brewhouse, but we also realise this event would appeal to so many music fans around the country and the world,” Alfredo said. “To ensure no one misses out, we will be streaming the event live from our website where people can tune in, chat about the bands playing, and be part of making Australian music history.”

Lucky for us, we’re in Sydney and  can catch the awesome line-up, including our local faves Two Girls Will, C*U*N*T, The Mis-Made and, rumour has it, Maxine Kauter Band!

To promote the event I have 5 double passes at $40 – that means half price or buy one get one free. All you have to do is be one of the first 5 people to email me: sin.yesmaam@gmail.com 

It’s nice to give back when you can, it feels good and we make the world a better place for those that need a helping hand. And besides, you can access  40hours of music or pop in and pop back as often as you like. But I’m guessing you might just want to see every amazing act!
