DC/U2: The Nation’s Capitol U2 Cover Band

Some of U2’s biggest hits were performed by DC/U2 to make a difference in the lives of some special children! I was hired to photograph this concert (two full sets) and the slide show below are my favorite highlights from it.

DC/U2 played at Brambleton’s Sizzlin’ Summer Concert Series on August 20th from 7-9pm in the Brambleton Town Center across from the Fox Cinemas. This special concert featured members of the Brambleton Community, and was designed to raise awareness, compassion and resources for the Senzani Vulnerable Children’s Project.

Senzani is one of the areas hardest hit by HIV and AIDS in Malawi, Africa. Senzani has a population of about 22,700, including 1,610 orphans. An average of 15 children a month are orphaned by AIDS. Estimates indicate that in the next 10 years the number of orphaned will climb to more than 6000 children. I was glad to be a part of this concert and it's cause.
