As many of you know by now, our friend, Johnnie Lockridge has been diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. I've known her for about 22 years at least. We worked alongside each other at Gabriel's for a long time. Everyone that knows her knows what a damn hard worker she is, and just about anybody that's ever graced the door at Gabe's knows that pretty blonde behind the bar. Local musicians know her face well and to say the least she's very popular with us !! Johnnie is also the mother of a 12-year-old son that really needs his mother. Most of you know the way that I handle these type of things is to throw a big ass party where we can raise some money for her that she can use in whatever way she sees fit!
So, what we're doing here is an all afternoon event. It's on a Sunday, and at pub 261 which is a smoke free establishment in Pelham. The current lineup is
Blue Moon Duet
Southtown Revival
Fuzzy Puppies
Avery Ellis Exhibit(s)
Matt Hill
I think we're going to have at least one more that hopefully we'll get as many people there as possible. We're still working on that. Also we may do a musician free for all hour. These things are always fun on a Sunday and if you're somebody that's looking to form a band there will be a ton of musicians there to talk with and perhaps even a jam with!
If you wanna help, let me know. We're also going to be giving away a ton of door prizes and some silent auction stuff. Musicians, if you have an old guitar or bass or something laying around and you would like to donate it to auction off, please either message me or Sean. Non-musicians if you wanna donate something that's of value that we can auction off or raffle off? Let me know. If you want to bring gift cards that we can raffle off, we can do that too!
More details as we put this together. If there's ever a time that you could do some good this is the time.
Be there for Johnnie!! She needs us.
