SAP Center in San Jose was filled with about 10,000 Los Tigres del Norte fans Saturday night as the band added a fundraising effort in light of the recent Half Moon Bay floods this year.
The concert by the popular Norteño group was about entertaining the fans, but also giving back to the community. The band said in a statement to KPIX:"Farmworkers already face many hardships in daily life and we could not stand by when so many people close to home have had to face these additional horrible events. We also encourage more people to join us once again in supporting this hardworking, but underserved community.
Gonzalez has been a fan of the band since she was five years old. She and her husband, both farmworkers, were taking a much-needed break Saturday night. . The band donated about 300 tickets. The sales go to the community group. ALAS founder and executive director Hernandez-Arriaga said many farmworkers are still unable to go back to their homes damaged in the floods. Some are living in hotels, shelters or tents. The need is greater than ever.
