Monday, January 11, 2010
NORTHAMPTON (AP) - Folk singer Arlo Guthrie is among the musicians scheduled to perform at a concert for the victims of the Northampton arson fires.
The concert is planned for the night of Jan. 23 at the Academy of Music. Tickets are $15.
Primate Fiasco and The Winterpills are among the other artists scheduled to perform. All proceeds will go to the Northampton Neighbors Relief Fund.
Authorities have said 15 fires were deliberately set in the early morning hours of Dec. 27, including one at a Ward 3 home that took the life of a World War II veteran and his son. Other fires damaged homes, garages and vehicles.
A man has been arrested in connection with the blazes and faces various charges, including murder.
