Local Bands Unite for ‘Mookie Fest’, a Concert to Benefit Abilene Musician with Cancer
September 6, 2012 Above all else, one thing you can say about Abilene area bands is that they take care of their own. It doesn't matter if it's day or night, rain or shine...it's a brotherhood, a family that is there to carry the weight when one of their 'family' needs help.
Well, this happens to be one of those times. Mike 'Mookie' Morgan, guitarist for Rear Naked Choke, was recently diagnosed with cancer and instead of letting their brother carry the burden alone, local bands are hosting a benefit to help defray medical costs.
