Daryl Benny

Continuing on a theme, the lineup for the Burlington installment of Daryl Rabidoux benefits — in addition to the Boston and Providence shows — has just been announced. And it's a good one. Check it out:

8:30 - Zac Clark
9 - Lowell Thompson solo
9:30 - Ryan Power
10 - Swale
10:30 - Neil Cleary
11- Blowtorch
11:30 - The Vanderpolls (formerly The Jazz Guys . . . really)
12 - Brett Hughes (formerly Brett Hughes)
12:30 - Workingman's Army
1 - My Dearest Darling

The show is Friday, July 25 at Club Metronome. $5 — that's the minimum, feel free to donate above and beyond — and proof of legal drinking age gets you in the door. 100% of door proceeds go to Daryl. The one and only Jason Cooley will serve as emcee for the evening and provide between set entertainment, Koolaoke-style.

Kudos to Club Metronome and Max Schwartz (of the Jazz Gu . . .er, Vanderpolls) for pulling this all together. No word yet as to whether Daryl will be in attendance.

On a related note, the early returns from last night's Mikey Dread benny are pretty remarkable. I've received e-mails from a number of folks who've said they couldn't even get in. No word yet on how much much was raised, but that's a pretty good sign. Just a reminder that if you couldn't go — or get in — you can also donate here.

Thanks to all that came out last night. Much appreciated and we raised a bunch of money towards the cause. I cannot express how much this means to me, and how great it felt to see all of my friends and family out having fun with me. Thanks Burlington, once again coming together to do the right thing for someone in need. AMAZING!!!
