will be a benefit concert for musician Andrew
D'angelo. Andrew - a well-respected saxophonist best
known for his groundbreaking work with percussionist
Jim Black - was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor
and is expected to undergo surgery in the very near
future. Unfortunately Andrew is one of the millions of
Americans who cannot afford medical insurance, let
alone an expensive medical procedure, so all of his
friends are chipping in whatever they can to help him
pay for an operation that will save his life.
There have been multiple benefits arranged by
musicians all over the world, which so far have been
extremely helpful in raising funds, and the one this
Friday hopes to be equally as helpful. Myself, George
Korein, Dylan Sparrow, and Keith Abrams are all
pooling our collective talents and doing a kind of
round-robin/musical-chairs thing, and it should be
very entertaining.
Entertainment, odd music, good people, and a worthy
cause benefiting a truly wonderful human being. What
else can one hope for?
