This is a benefit for the St. Larry (patron saint of rock n'roll), with the BlowoutAcousticCombo starting @ 7:30 for a set, and then we'll do a set. The show is $10, but worth it for the restoration of a great building if you've got it to spare. So come on out and let's make some music :) Hope all is well, LosFederales,Esq.";
