ONE WILD NIGHT 2009, our second annual event, will be held JUNE 6, 2009 at O'Riley's in Dallas, Texas. Time and line-up TBD.
Keep checking for details!
ONE WILD NIGHT is an evening of music and raffles - an event to benefit Running Wild in the Night, the fund-raising initiative started by NIKKI SIXX, co-founder, bassist and primary songwriter of MOTLEY CRUE and more recently, one-third of SIXX:A.M. This "UNOFFICIAL" FAN-DRIVEN event is inspired by the resolve, perseverance and generosity of NIKKI SIXX, a recovering addict turned advocate and role model.
SIXX is the first rock musician to be invited to speak at the NAADAC luncheon on Capitol Hill, which kicked off National Drug & Alcohol Recovery Month in September 2007. In 2007, SIXX published The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star, which chronicles the harrowing year of addiction from Christmas 1986 to Christmas 1987 that lead to his spiritual death and rebirth.
ALL proceeds from this annual event go to RUNNING WILD IN THE NIGHT and COVENANT HOUSE CALIFORNIA.
SIXX founded Running Wild in the Night, a fundraising initiative for Covenant House to help at-risk youth on the streets of California and around the world. SIXX created Running Wild in the Night to raise awareness and funds for a creative arts/music program within Covenant House. SIXX has raised money for Covenant House by auctioning personal items, autographed merchandise and memorabilia. In addition, SIXX is donating 25 percent of the proceeds from the sale of The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star (a New York Times bestseller) to Covenant House.
NIKKI graciously signed some items that were included in the raffle during One Wild Night 2008. This year, we have a little something from Kat Von D
Take a look at our blogs to see some of the other items that were included in our raffle during the FIRST ANNUAL EVENT held June 14, 2008. We are working on getting equally fabulous items for the 2009 event. Also, be sure to check out our pictures from One Wild Night 2008.
WE TOSSED THE T-SHIRT SHOWN IN THE FOLLOWING PICTURES ON STAGE DURING THE SIXX:A.M. SET AT CRUEFEST IN TAMPA, FLORIDA. Nikki wiped his face with it, so we know he saw it. ;)
Lots of love, hugs, kisses and thanks to all of the donors, sponsors and supporters who contributed to One Wild Night 2008. See our blogs for details.
