Over the last two years, iconic Canadian Rock performers have united to stage a benefit concert in the ongoing battle to beat cancer.
As the brainchild of legendary drummer Rocket Norton of PRISM who sadly passed away from the disease this past April, these sold-out shows have electrified Vancouver and raised an impressive $660,000 for the BC Cancer Foundation.
On Thursday, October 17th, 2024, Wheaton Precious Metals is again proud to present ROCK BEATS CANCER at the Great Canadian Casino Show Theatre located at 2080 United
Boulevard, Coquitlam, BC. Doors open at 6:00 PM.
The following artists are joining in solidarity and friendship to perform their classic hits:
Loverboy (Mike Reno, Paul Dean)
Chilliwack (Bill Henderson, Ab Bryant)
Powder Blues Band (Tom Lavin)
Lee Aaron (Lee Aaron, John Cody, Dave Reimer)
Barney Bentall (Barney Bentall)
Trooper’s Hot Shots (Tommy Stewart, Frank Ludwig, Doni Underhill, David Wills, Ray
Roper)
Streetheart (Jeff Neill, Paul McNair)
Seeds of Time (Lindsay Mitchell, John Hall, Al Harlow)
The evening will also include a live auction of unique music memorabilia as well as a video tribute to the late, great Rocket Norton.
Proceeds from ROCK BEATS CANCER go to the BC Cancer Foundation, specifically, the Personalised Onco-Genomics (POG) Program – a world-leading research initiative that uses
intensive genomic data collection and analysis to identify and understand the genomic alterations that drive cancer growth, metastasis, and the biological evolution and response to
therapies.
All donations to this program are matched dollar for dollar by the Federal Government of Canada, DOUBLING the impact of all ticket and auction revenue.
