Previously unreleased footage from the legendary Teenage Cancer Trust benefit shows at the Royal Albert Hallis set for release.
Packed with performances that capture the spirit of this unique event, including one-off collaborations between Noel Gallagher and Paul Weller and Razorlight and The Who’s Roger Daltrey, the DVD will be available from the Teenage Cancer Trust website (link) immediately at a special preview price. The DVD will then be available on general release from all good retailers from 14 April 2008. All profits from the sale of the DVD will go to Teenage Cancer Trust, helping them to continue to build specialist teenage cancer units within the NHS for young people with cancer.
Filmed live at London’s spectacular Royal Albert Hall, artists featured in the DVD include The Who, Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, The Cure, Kasabian, Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight, Bloc Party and Judas Priest.
Tickets to the 2008 gigs at the Royal Albert Hall are now on sale and are proving to be as in-demand as ever with Muse, Paul Weller and Duffy selling out within hours. However, there is limited availability for The Fratellis and an evening of comedy with Noel Fielding. Tickets and further information are available from link.
The TCT gigs were the brainchild of The Who’s Roger Daltrey CBE, patron of Teenage Cancer Trust, who has, over the last eight years, persuaded the best of British talent available across rock, pop and comedy to give up their time to raise money for this unique charity.
Each day in the UK, 6 teenagers will be diagnosed with cancer – that is over 2,000 diagnoses per year. TCT funds specialist teenage units in NHS hospitals, providing an environment where teenagers can get on with being teenagers, a positive environment expected to improve survival rates and ensure a better future for patients and their families.
If you can't wait till the 14th April you can get the DVD now from the Teenage Cancer Trust website:
