FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE –

METALJAM 2005 Show Date and Time, Raffle Items and
Merchandise

The third-annual MetalJam, “MetalJam 2005”, will take
place on Saturday October 22 at Hogue Barmichaels in
Newport Beach, CA. MetalJam 2005 features local
musicians jamming together to benefit Cure Autism Now,
a non-profit organization of parents, clinicians and
leading scientists committed to accelerating the pace
of biomedical research in autism through raising money
for research projects, education and outreach.

Metal Jam raises money for Cure Autism Now by selling
raffle tickets the night of the jam for $5 each as
well as taking donations at the door. This year we
have in excess of fifty items that will be raffled
off. You can see some of the items that will be
raffled off on October 22nd by going to
http://www.metaljam.org/raffle.html.

We will also be selling t-shirts to commemorate the
event for $25. You can pre order a t-shirt by going
to http://www.metaljam.org/merchandise.html. Last
year the shirts sold out before the event was over so
order now and you will have your shirt waiting for you
the night of the event.

MetalJam was created in 2003 by local musicians Jenny
Warren and Jeff Fahnestock, who are both raising
autistic children. The goal was to bring the local
music community together as well as raise money for a
good cause that was very close to home.

The MetalJam event is a free five hour long jam that
includes local musicians and fans, plus radio station
personalities and a raffle, with donations taken at
the door. MetalJam 2004 was a huge success, with
over40 participants in the jam, nearly 300 audience
members, and raising almost $2000 for Cure Autism Now.
