EARLY WARNING: Benefit Concert Coming 9/27/18
A Message From Frank G:
"Myself and TSH will be hosting a benefit concert for my close friend and fellow Benet Academy alum (Class of 1991), Andy Stout. Andy was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor on June 4, 2018. Andy underwent immediate emergency surgery on June 5th to remove a dangerous glioblastoma the size of a large lemon. He is currently undergoing chemotherapy and needs our help to help with his two children and mounting medical expenses!
The event will be on Thursday, 9/27/18 at Ballydoyle Irish Pub in Downers Grove, Illinois. There will be two (2) bands performing: Thrift Store Halo (playing our songs from our several releases from 1997-2018) and Jameson Shakes (awesome party covers). 100% of the $10 cover charge and raffle/silent auction proceeds will go directly to Andy.
Do you have a business and would like to donate gift cards/certificates? Can you make a basket? Donate sports/event tickets? I'd love to have a killer raffle to raise some additional funds...so, PLEASE let me know by emailing me at fgradishar@usa.net!! I will be raffling off one of my favorite bass guitars for the cause!"
10,000+ Plays!
Thrilled to share that our newest tracks, "Concrete Sky" and "Every Time With You" have been played a combined total of 10,000+ times on Spotify!
My good friend and fellow Benet Academy alum (Class of '91), Andy Stout was diagnosed with a brain tumor on June 4, 2018. Andy underwent immediate emergency surgery on June 5th to remove a dangerous glioblastoma the size of a large lemon. He is the is the incredible father to 2 young kids, Rowan (7) and Callum (5). He has dedicated his life to raising his children, as well as teaching acting and participating in TV shows when he had the chance. Unfortunately, given his current medical hardship, Andy cannot continue working and has no income to pay his medical expenses, not to mention helping care for his 2 amazing children. So, to help defray medical expenses, Thrift Store Halo and Jameson Shakes are hosting a fundraiser at Ballydoyle Irish Pub & Restaurant-Downers Grove! Please come out and support Andy! Kids welcome. $10 cover charge (all proceeds to Andy Stout).
