Band of Horses, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and more, Pablove Benefit Show @ the Avalon The Pablove Foundation held one of many benefits on Saturday night at the Avalon in Hollywood. The benefit featured Band of Horses; Rooney; Garbage lead singer Shirley Manson; Butch Walker; Tom Morello; Black Rebel Motorcycle Club; Sea Wolf; Jarrod Gorbel of the Honorary Title and Tom Gabel of Against Me!. Created by Dangerbird Records' co-founder Jeff Castlelaz, the Pablove Foundation helps the fight against children's cancer nationally and locally at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Pablo, the son of Jeff and Jo Ann Castelaz, was diagnosed with the rare Wilm's Tumor and unfortantely lost the fight this past summer. After Pablo's death, Jeff traveled from Florida back to California on a road bike on Pablove Across America and met and was joined by many parents, riders, all in the name of fighting the good fight against pediatric cancer. To donate or to learn more of the Pablove Foundation, please visit www.pablove.org. Photos and words by Chris Victorio.

Handball Tournament @ Costa Mesa High School When security guard Richard Gomez was hired to patrol the Costa Mesa High School campus 10 years ago he decided he had to do more than watch as some of the kids fell into gang life. His most inventive idea: A handball tournament. It started small with a few students and a few trophies and has grown to include players from around the county and beyond. On Nov. 14, about 60 youths—from Orange, Santa Ana, Newport Beach, Costa Mesa and Canoga Park—showed up to compete for the top prizes.

The West Coast Derby Knockouts (playing only their 2nd match) challenged the Huntington Heartbreakers with tons of bumps, falls, and clips. The second match featured the BackBay Bombers versus the debut of the Crash Test Bunnies. This match was called at halftime due to injuries.
