As previously announced,
 the surviving members of SUICIDE SILENCE will play a special show on 
December 21 at the Fox theater in Pomona, California as a tribute to 
their late singer, Mitch Lucker. All proceeds from the event will 
go towards the education of Mitch's five-year-old daughter, Kenadee 
Lucker. The concert announcement was made last night (Saturday, November
 24) during the sixth annual California Metalfest at the NOS Events 
Center in San Bernardino, California. Here is the official event poster:
The Heavy Music world was struck by the very
  sad news that Mitchell Adam Lucker passed away at the young age of 28 (More information HERE).
    According to the Los Angeles Times, Lucker  struck a light pole near
    the intersection of Main and 13th streets and  was thrown from his  
2013   Harley Davidson. The motorcycle continued  sliding south on Main 
 Street   and struck a northbound 2007 Nissan Titan  pickup.
Speaking to the audience, SUICIDE SILENCE guitarist Mark Heylmun  
said (see video HERE), "We fucking lost our brother; I'm sure you all  
know that. We all miss him more than anything in the fucking world." 
The    remaining members of the band have set up a memorial fund for 
Mitch   Lucker’s family following the singer’s tragic death last week. 
Here is   their statement regarding this matter:
Fans 
who wish to   donate can do so via the link below, with donations of $20
 of more   receiving a commemorative t-shirt as a token of thanks. All 
proceeds   will go towards the educational fund of Mitch’s five-year-old
 daughter,   Kenadee.
