Hi Jim,
Came across your post and wanted to know if you would be intertested in this special project I am putting together. Please let me explain.
On Sat. evening, April 4th, 2009,I am organizing a benefit show to raise funds for ALS research. I had a half brother pass away from this dreadful disease 12 years ago and want to help find a cure. The show will take place at Ollie's Point in Amityville, a great nightclub with a big stage, fantastic sound system, lots of space. The show is called "The Second Annual Sound Success For ALS Show". It will be a tribute to The Beatles featuring a great Beatles cover band "Mostly Moptop". They will play a long first set followed by an all star ensemble playing the Fab Four and related music. All proceeds will be donated to the Eleanor and Lou Gehrig ALS Research Center at Columbia University in NYC. It should be quite a show.
Its a non paying gig for all involved as all money raised goes to the charity. John Ford from the Strawbs has already confirmed he will be there. So has Blues Brothers Band member Birch Johnson, guitarist extraordinaire Kerry Kearney, singer/ actress Phoebe LeGere, Libert DeVitto, Ian Lloyd from Stories, Others are soon to follow!
Paulene Sutcliffe, sister of "fifth Beatle" Stu Sutcliffe, will be coming as a special guest too, perhaps bringing some of Stu's artwork to show.
Would you like to come join the ensemble? As I stated, it is a non paying gig. Birch Johnson plays the trombone. I'd like to have a trumpet and sax to join him. It will be mostly Beatles music.
Please let me know if you are interested. Thanks so much for even considering.
Best wishes,
Mick Du Russel
