SEATTLE PREMIERE OF FILM ABOUT ROCK N ROLL AND ORGAN TRANSPLANTS

Join Seattle's vibrant and diverse music community for the Seattle premiere of D TOUR, a new film by Jim Granato. On Saturday, September 12, 2009 at 4:00 PM Community Cinema Seattle presents the story of Pat Spurgeon whose big dreams to make it as an indie rock musician are just about to take off when he suffers an incredible setback: one of his kidneys fails. Follow Pat on his emotional search for a living organ donor. Can he balance his health with a rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle? Featuring live performances from Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie), Nada Surf, Ryan Miller, John Vanderslice, The Moore Brothers, and of course Pat’s band Rogue Wave. The screening at SIFF Cinema is open to the public and there is no charge to attend. The screening will be followed by a brief audience Q&A with local artists and organ orgs. The event is open to the public and all are welcome.
