The Big Rock Out to Pay Tribute to Slain Olympic Boxer Vernon Forrest

CowboyMouth The Big Rock Out, for those who don’t know, is a Vegas-style night of pure entertainment coming to Atlanta on September 19. There will be music from awesome rockers Cowboy Mouth as well as local lads Holdcell, and boxing matches between “Pretty Boy” Michael Jean Louis and Anthony “Ice” Greenridge. Sounds pretty exciting – and yet there’s even more to the event.

A portion of the proceeds are going towards the Vernon Forrest family and charity as well as the charity Destiny’s Child. Many have already heard about Vernon Forrest, the world champion boxer who was killed in a failed robbery attempt not too long ago. There will also be a tribute and a silent auction featuring a painting of Forrest by local artist Steve Penley. Destiny’s Child is a charity that provides services and trains people with developmental, emotional, psychological
disabilities and needs, so that they may live as independently as possible in
the least restrictive environment to meet their needs.
