Rock Concert to be Held on Mount Everest
 
 
Oregon Scientific has announced a partnership with the Love Hope Strength Foundation as an official sponsor of “Everest Rocks.” The event starts with a 14-day trek up Mount Everest by 40 musicians and mountaineers.

The trek ends with an acoustic rock concert held at Mount Everest’s Base Camp. Footage of the concert, the trek and events leading up to the trek will be filmed exclusively using Oregon Scientific’s ATC2K Waterproof Action Cam.

In all 40 of the ATC2k cameras have been donated to the Love Hope Strength Foundation to capture footage of the event. Musicians for the event include Mike Peters of the UK band “The Alarm”, Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats, Nick Harper, Squeeze's Glenn Tilbrook, and The Fixx's Cy Curnin and Jamie West-Oram. The trek is expected to run from October 13-29th.
