Welcome back.
Just some quick words to mention a few things past and some coming up. Thanks again to Dennis Gallahger and Gene Kelly who made a meaningful night out of the Restaurant Workers Relief Fund/Red Cross Benefit, at The Cellar in Larchmont, NY. Buckets of money were raised, the music was a joy (thank you Professor Dick Neal for sitting in on the mandolin and to Artie Tobia and Chris Brown), and progress was made. While I am aware that a benefit like this doesn't solve the problem, it sure sheds some light and promotes a good feeling. That good feeling is hard to ignore. We are all making a comeback.Thank you to everyone who made it down below. It means everything to me to see you there.

I will be with my brothers and friends as the DesBerardo Band at The Bitter End in Greenwich Village on Oct 17. The band has never sounded better and the Bitter End is a great place to see live music. As always, check in with brother Chris at DesBerardo.com. Be sure to spend some time with the Mexican Diaries. It will make your ribs hurt.

On October 20th, I will be doing a show with Connecticut legends October Moon. It will take place at the very scenic Stony Creek Puppet Theater in Stony Creek, CT. Stony Creek is a beautiful town with views of the Thimble Islands. The Theater is home to a Puppet Troupe (I am not kidding) and is an excellent venue for live music. You might remember the Stony Creek from the very successful Flammang Benefit in October of last year. The weather will be crisp and fine, so I hope you come early enough to have a look around the town.

Now I must concentrate on the Yankee Game. Keep checking back and be good to each other.
