CANCER CONCERT RAISES A QUARTER OF A MILLION 23 August 2007 Versus Cancer has raised a quarter of a million pounds to benefit cancer charities across the North of England. Following the massively successful concert at Manchester's MEN Arena on Friday March 30th this year, which saw unique performances from Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, Ian Brown, The Charlatans and many more, The Great Northern Aid Trust, organisers of the Versus Cancer concerts, has announced its first money raise for 2007. “It was an amazing night and we’re overwhelmed that so many great artists gave up their time for free to make it happen,” said Great Northern Aid Trust founder Andy Rourke. “Of course this is just one more step for us, with a DVD due out soon and more events in the pipeline, we hope to raise even more money for cancer charities.” The biggest beneficiary from the concert will again be the Christie Hospital, a specialist cancer hospital in Manchester, who have received ￡100,000 for innovative cancer research. 3/30 於曼城 MEN Arena 举行的慈善演唱，表演者包括 Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, Ian Brown, The Charlatans，共募到二十五万英镑。 主办单位 Great Northern Aid Trust 接下来将发行 DVD 以及数场慈善演出。 http://www.oasisinet.com/site.php?site=news&idx=754 --
