Wonder what your favourite bands are doing to help the community during these difficult times? This fortnight we'll be looking at Palaye Royale, Avril Lavigne, Weezer and Nirvana.

Palaye Royale:

Looking at the image, it's pretty self-explanatory:

We have a photo of Emerson Barrett (Palaye Royale's drummer) in a BLM march following the George Floyd incident

We have a photo of Emerson Barrett (Palaye Royale's drummer) in a BLM march following the George Floyd incident. This once again shows that we do not deserve these amazing brothers, but thank god they're here.

Avril Lavigne:

Avril Lavigne released the official music video for We Are Warriors, which features key workers, people who still have to go to work during quarantine, holding up signs that say things like "I am a #warrior", "My warrior is my mother", so on and so forth.

At the end of the video, it shows a message, similar to the one in the description:

"Proceeds from this song & video help Project HOPE & The Avril Lavigne Foundation provide Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to WARRIORS on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

To make an additional donation, visit www.CharityStars.com/WARRIORS

Thank you and #StaySafeAtHome."

Yes, you're seeing that right, it's puppet Brendon in a Weezer video. Brendon Urie sure has a thing for being in another band's music video (ahem, Uma Thurman, ahem).

Weezer uploaded the official music video for Hero, which features a ton of people passing on a sheet of paper, shown close up at the end of the video:

I don't expect everyone to have super-vision, so here's what it says:

"Whether you run emergency supplies on electric golf carts or translate English for someone who doesn't speak it, we thank you.

Whether you man computers or pick up phones, answer questions and concerns or route people here and there, we thank you.

Whether you donate pillows and blankets or give money, we thank you.

To those lacking proper face masks, risking their health for the greater good, we thank you.

While the rest of us retreated to our homes, you ran towards the threat in a battle you didn't even know you signed up for. Your bravery and selflessness are awe-inspiring. You are the reason we shall rock another day.

Life is good, and for all of this, we thank you.

Rivers Cuomo
Weezer".

Yes, that's Smells Like Teen Spirit. Problem?

This message is attached to a lot of Nirvana's YouTube videos. Nirvana are helping raise money to help the World Health Organization during the COVID-19 pandemic, similar to Avril Lavigne's charities. Their goal is $5M.

Now then, go ahead and see what you can do to help everyone around you during these difficult times!
