Classic tunes for bushfire support The classic tunes of Linda Ronstadt and Joe Cocker will be played as part of a bushfire fundraiser Hosted by Queenscliff’s 360Q restaurant. The Cocker Ronstadt Tribute Show was already a scheduled event on the restaurant’s calendar, but will now raised funds for Foodbank Victoria’s Bushfire Emergency Relief Appeal. “The bushfire crisis has been heartbreaking across the country this summer and we want to do what we can to help,” said 360Q owner Barry Iddles. “The crew at Foodbank are doing a fantastic job to deliver much-needed food to communities affected by the disaster and it seemed a very appropriate way for us to contribute.” The February 15 event, featuring Susie Davies- Splitter and Phil Splitter, will include a show, three- course dinner and drinks. Twenty dollars of each $120 ticket will be donated to Foodbank. The organisation, which currently feeds around 140,000 disadvantaged Victorians each year, has also been a central depot for providing food and supplies to bushfire-affected communities.
