Free Concert - Willie Brown Blues Benefit - Tampa, FL - August 26, 2010
Several months ago, I was contacted by Jason, the administrator of TheDeltaBlues website. Jason asked if I might be willing to help promote the Willie Brown Blues Benefit scheduled for Sunday, August 26, 2010, at Rick's On The River, in Tampa, Florida. I gladly agreed to do so. According to the website, the purpose of the benefit is to raise money to have a headstone created and placed at the Good Shepherd Church in Tunica, Mississippi. Mr. Brown is currently buried in an unmarked grave. The expected cost of the headstone is $2100. Although the concert itself is free, money will be raised from raffles and live auctions during the concert. A donation bucket will also be available for those who wish to make cash contributions toward the purchase of the headstone. For more information about this concert and its worthy cause, contact Jason at http://www.tdblues.com
