SOULLESS, HOSTILE OMISH, BREAKER, IRON MESSIAH, WRETCH, AT NO END, DEADIRON and JULIA ROBERTS' GLOBAL WARNING will perform at the fourth annual Iron Ingo Cleveland Metal Holiday Food Drive, a benefit concert for the Cleveland Foodbank, Friends Of The Cleveland Kennel and Lake Humane Society on Saturday, December 8th at The Beachland Ballroom in Cleveland, OH. The event is hosted by WJCU 88.7 FM and Auburn Records.

Special guests include The Red Hot Heathens burlesque group. Doors open at 6 PM. The show begins at 6:30 PM. Admission is free.

Fans attending the concert are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items or cash donations to help those in need this holiday season. A donation will be made from the Cleveland metal community to the Cleveland Foodbank, Friends Of The Cleveland Kennel and the Lake Humane Society.

Event organizer Bill Peters commented: "Our goal is to top last year's record breaking donation totals of 2,159 lbs. of food and $872.76 in cash. Heavy metal fans are the most generous in the world when it comes to supporting good causes. They never cease to amaze me. Every year our donation totals keep increasing significantly. We want to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Working together we are making a positive difference by giving back to our community."

Cleveland Foodbank Food And Funds Coordinator Caroline Weir further commented: "Cash is our most needed item this holiday season. For every dollar donated to the Cleveland Foodbank we can help provide four nutritious meals to those in need."

The Cleveland Foodbank supplies a majority of the food used in local hot meal sites, shelters, and food pantries. In addition, they provide food to child care centers, group homes, and programs for the elderly.

According to a press release: “The food drive is named in honor of Germany's Iron Ingo Stührenberg. Ingo, a writer for the popular German underground heavy metal webzine Metal Rules, has adopted Cleveland as his second home. He has traveled to Cleveland from his home in Wiesmoor, Germany, at his own expense, to host two previous successful food drive events. He will be unable to attend this year. Dave Overkill (DESTRUCTOR) and Aurora Sans (The Red Hot Heathens) will fill in as MC's for the evening.”

Ingo commented: "Now it´s already our fourth food drive event. Time really flies but not for everyone. There are a lot of people without a home, a warm bed or a daily meal. The upcoming cold wintertime is even more worse to go through so please make a difference again and donate for people in need and also for our friends on four paws. It´s not on you that the world is what it is, but it´s on you if it stays that way. To help others live gives meaning to your own life. Give a little bit to help a lot! In union we stand!"
