DISPATCH ANNOUNCE BENEFIT SHOW, "DISPATCH: ZIMBABWE"
A CONCERT AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN

FIRST NIGHT SOLD OUT IN 30 MINUTES

SECOND NIGHT ADDED

100% OF PROCEEDS GOING TO CHARITIES IN ZIMBABWE AND THE US

After three years, Dispatch reunite for benefit show "Dispatch: Zimbabwe" a
concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City on July 14, 2007. All of
the proceeds from "Dispatch: Zimbabwe" will go towards fighting disease,
famine, and social injustice in Zimbabwe. Tickets for "Dispatch: Zimbabwe"
went on an exclusive Myspace.com pre-sale today, January 10th and sold out
in 30 minutes. A second night, July 13th, has just been added. "Dispatch:
Zimbabwe" has already made history, making Dispatch the first independent
band to sell out Madison Square Garden.

For almost ten years, the three members of Dispatch released album after
album on their own label, rising up without the assistance of a major record
company. They became pioneers in the music industry, playing to capacity at
major venues across the country and selling more than 600,000 albums. In
2004 Dispatch decided to call it quits and celebrate an amazing eight-year
run by performing a free farewell show in Boston, MA. More than 110,000 fans
from 25 countries showed up, making it the largest independent music event
in history. Now Dispatch is back, coming together for a cause that¹s greater
than anything that drew them apart.

Since Dispatch¹s farewell show, Brad Corrigan, Pete Francis and Chad Urmston
have focused their efforts on tragedy and devastation in all parts of the
globe: the tsunamis in Southeast Asia, the hurricanes in the United States
and the genocide in Darfur. As individuals, each of the guys has done work
to try and make a difference. As Dispatch, they feel like they can do more.

In an effort to bring the fight to their own country, Dispatch will donate a
small portion of the money raised to the domestic causes they have long
supported.
