Musicians aim for world’s highest gig in Nepal
Cancer survivors and musicians from across the world are planning to
perform world’s highest gig at the foot of Mount Everest to raise funds
for cancer charities, organisers said Wednesday.
“On October 22 our team will perform a rock concert above Everest
Base Camp in Kala Patthar (5,550 metres, 18,315 feet) and break the
world record for the highest gig,” James Chippendale, co-founder of
US-based Love Hope Strength Foundation told AFP in Kathmandu.
Rock and folk musicians from the United States, Britain and Australia
will be jamming amidst the snow and glaciers at the foot of Mount
Everest, the worlds highest peak at 8,848 metres (29,198 feet),
Chippendale said.
