Here's an event happening on Sunday, October 2nd that you can't afford to miss...
The press release should say it all, but contact me if you need more info. We'd really like to see you there...
For Immediate Release:
On Sunday, October 2nd from 4pm-11pm, The Lafayette Tap Room, Nocturnal Productions, the Blues Society of WNY, the SPCA serving Erie County, and the Salvation Army will present "Blues for the Delta," a benefit concert event for victims of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and Mississippi.
The Lafayette Tap Room will host this star-studded Blues event, and 100% of proceeds will go towards relief activities related to the devastation wrought by Katrina. Proceeds designated for the SPCA will be sent directly to the SPCA in Louisiana, while proceeds dedicated for the Salvation Army will support current relief efforts in the flood-stricken areas.
Raffles and various additional fundraising will occur throughout the day.
Confirmed acts include the Speedy Parker Band, Gregg Juke & The Mighty No-Star Blues Band, The Patti Parks Band, and soloist John Martz. The event will also feature an end-of-the-evening "All-Star" jam set, showcasing some of Western New York's well-known Blues, R&B, and Roots talent.
Sponsorship and support provided by Insty-Prints at the Airport Plaza and Sunset Fruits & Vegetables.

T-Bone here to remark on yet another great show by the mighty no stars. Bruce rounds laid down the law and broke it on this magic night. ( I have no idea what that really means but always wanted to say it.) To date my alltime favorite bass player has been me, but me thinks I shall change my vote to Joel Thomas who handles his axe like a copperhead snake in a basket of posies with a grip just tight enough to say "you're dangerous but I'm in charge now" while the sweet smell of double stops fills the air. The famous playing face says it all "This sure is fun but if you turn on me I'll snap your neck like a twig." When I land a blues gig deep in the Amazon, I'll be borrowing this cat for a few days. Go see these guys ASAP. (not my signature)
T-Bone has a way with words...
A very accurate and descriptive way, ladies and gentlemen.
THANKS MAN!
