Yamaha Canada Music, Montreal Drum Fest and Movember Canada Team Up for Men’s Health
Yamaha Canada Music, the 21st Annual Montreal Drum Fest and Movember Canada have joined forces to raise awareness for men’s health with their Kick Start Movember Silent Drums Silent Auction. Ten DTX430K Electronic drum kits will be up for silent auction with 100% of the proceeds going to Movember Canada. The auction will take place all day Saturday, October 26th during Drum Fest at the Pierre-Mercure Hall / Pierre Peladeau Centre in Montreal.
In addition to the one day silent auction, Yamaha Drum Marketing Manager, Sean Browne, will be representing Yamaha Canada Music as an official Movember Mo Bro. He has made the generous commitment to Kick Start Movember by starting the mo-growing process one week early. A MoSpace has been created to collect donations at http://mobro.co/yamahadrums and Yamaha Canada Music will be tweeting updates on Sean’s mo-progress throughout the month on twitter @YamahaCanMusic.
The DTX430K is available exclusively at Best Buy in Canada.
