Liane Carroll Fundraising event a huge success
The Garibaldi Live Fundraiser for our friend Liane Carroll was a huge success. An amazing £1,040 + £240 direct donations raised, with more to follow! THANK YOU!
Following her unfortunate accident before Christmas, the 14th January impromptu gig to help Liane Carroll was simply amazing and life affirming.
The Gari was packed with generous, beautiful people, all there to do something excellent for a most excellent human being. I, and all at The Gari, thank you for being there and for creating such an incredible atmosphere.
We were blown away by how many came, given the short notice. Please, please send any pics/vids of the event to Liane via private message to her FB page. I’m positive she would love the opportunity to see what you all did.
Although, in our eyes, you’re all superstars, special thanks are always in order:
1. To Tom, Gem, and the hard working peeps at The Gari, thanks for everything you do, not just for yesterday but for every Matinee throughout the year.
2. To our anonymous donor of the Moulin Rouge tickets, our massive thanks.
3. To Cath, who did the collection for the Moulin Rouge tickets (£615!!!!), huge thanks.
4. To Celeste and Amarah, who did the bar tab collection, huge thanks, especially to Amarah who did a beautiful job in drawing the raffles.
5. To all the beautiful people who couldn’t come, but made generous direct donations to Liane (these will be added to the amount raised in the pub)
6. To John Finn for the great gig listing, huge thanks.
7. Respect and Enormous Gratitude To The Musicians Who Gave Freely Their Time and Talents:
- Ian Riley: Keys

- Mat Day: Guitar
- Tom Purr: Bass
- Chris Hilliard: Drums
- Celeste: Top Vocals
