Lonely Boys Sing For Helpful Girl Scouts
Posted by admin under: Community Partners .
Grammy winning band Los Lonely Boys are going to perform at a benefit for the Girl Scouts in Texas. How cool is that? I don’t personally know this band, but any Grammy winners who are putting themselves out there to help the Girl Scouts are A-OK in my B-O-O-K. Julian Cavazos has the scoop in the Victoria Advocate.
Crossroads blues-rock fans will be in “Heaven” at the news Los Lonely Boys are coming to Victoria. The Texan rock group will play Victoria on Aug. 29.
Known for the 2004 hit “Heaven” and 2005’s “Diamonds,” the San Angelo-based group is coming to Riverside Park as part of a fundraiser for Girl Scouts of Greater South Texas.
Proceeds go toward scholarships and outreach programs. South Texas is home to nearly 15,000 Girl Scouts.
The Girl Scouts “deserve it. They work so hard selling cookies,” said Daniel Torres, owner of DT Productions, who is promoting the concert. “I think they deserve more. Some girls come from single-parent homes.”
The band will perform at Riverside Park’s special events area. About 3,000 pre-sale tickets are available starting June 12. After July 12, tickets will cost $35. The special events arena will be open, so more than 10,000 people can attend, Torres said.
Better get them while they’re cheaper, then.

The Girl Scouts are in for a time of their life when they hear Los Lonely Boys bang out some ROCKIN’ tunes!
