Blueprint reuniting for Alex Arizpe Benefit shows

It's been announced that there will be new benefit shows for Alex Arizpe, alumnus of Houston bands Badger, The Tie That Binds, Sore Loser, and Beast. When Alex was diagnosed with cancer in 2008, benefit shows were held in both Houston and Austin featuring a reunion of The Tie That Binds which helped raised money to offset the obviously costly treatment which Alex requires. 2010 brings the need for a second round of benefit shows, so his friends are once again stepping up to help.

The 2010 benefit show dates and lineups have been solidified, and both are worthy of your support:

June 25, 2010 - Austin, TX
