Hey there Folks: I'm having a Birthday Bash Benefit Concert for the WYCHWOOD OPEN DOOR on Saturday Jan. 5th from 4:00 to 7:00 pm at the TRANZAC TIKI ROOM - it's just a little get-together with my friends and tying it in to a good cause, namely helping my local Soup Kitchen which is sort of what Wychwood Open Door is - which I try to have a benefit for once a year - a place where homeless and poor people can go for a decent meal and warm embrace; I'm providing a House Band and a HOUSE GUITAR - so you don't have to bring yours!

I've already asked a few friends - and so far I have a House Band of Lawrie Ingles on keys, Al Sobes on bass, Bob Cohen, Kevin Bell (maybe) on guitar, maybe Sam Sundersingh - and GUEST MUSICIANS: Aidan Devine, Harpin Norm Lucien,Brian Gladstone, Alan McKinlay, Sam Sundar-Singh,Jay Pennell, David Storey, Mark Yan - and many more - if I asked you and I forgot, please remind me - We'll try to get as many people up as possible. Thanks and hope to see you there - last year we raised $400 for them - I hope we can match that this year! Cheers, all - NOTE: the Tiki Room is small but we'll try to manage :)
