FOUR North Shore bands, a live webcast, a Sundance nominated website and a roomful of young, ambitious talent only begins to describe the highlights of last Saturday's Broken Saints Benefit Concert #3.

The event, which featured performances by North Shore bands Headwater, Per fect Strangers, Masefield and Surefire, raised money to send the Saints boys to Utah to compete in the Sundance Online Film Festival's animation category. Jan. 22 is the big day, so log on to brokensaints.com and see why the future is now.
