The second annual Light of Day Australia concert is to take place a little later in the month at The Piping Hot Chicken Shop, Ocean Grove, July 24 & July 25. Light of Day Australia is the local offshoot of the US organisation that grew out of a 40th birthday for music industry veteran Bob Benjamin, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 1998. The first official Light of Day concert took place in 2000 at Asbury Park and featured Bruce Springsteen and Joe Grushecky and the Houserockers. Last year, Ocean Grove and Geelong communities came together for the local leg, with their events raising several thousand dollars for Parkinson’s Victoria.
