Two pieces in the local paper about Saturday’s benefit show featuring “Evelyn Harris of Sweet Honey in the Rock, Tom Woodbury, and others” (if I do say so myself…) to raise money to help Flat Street get back on its feet. This is a good thing and I’m pleased and proud to be a part of it.

’Bar Raiser’ benefit aids Flat Street Brew Pub and Raising her voice — and a bar.

We hope to raise some of the $50,000 it will take to get the pub open again for your pleasure. Won’t you join us? We will have beer, wine, martinis, an auction, and live music featuring Evelyn Harris, formerly of Sweet Honey in the Rock, accompanied by our beloved regular, Hugh Keelan on piano. You know you miss Flat Street – be there!
