The first, since May 2012, with the sale of tickets, the Santana residency has been responsible for a donation of more than $230,000 to benefit both the Milagro Foundation and to House of Blues’ Music Forward Foundation. The second announcement is that we have signed a multi-year extension so that Carlos can keep rockin’ at the House of Blues.”
