Neil YOung Tribute/ birthday party/ benefit for CHS tonight

Its down to tonight; the Neil Young tribute show here in Parkersburg WV. At 8 pm at the wheel house on avery st. in Parkersburg. 8 pm is when the show is slated to start. $5 donation to support the work of Children's Home Society in Parkersburg. We work with area children and families in need of some support and help through some rough times. These benefits help us do a lot of the extras we do to help folks; beyond our grant and contract funding. Our reach is wide, and we work hard and with a lot of positive approach.
The show tonight will consist of local musicians each performing a set of songs of their choosing celebrating the great body of work of Neil YOung. There will be a few door prizes throughout the evening, and if the audience will go along, there will be two versions of a contest pitting two contestants testing each others knowledge of Neil Young's music and life.
I'll be giving away the 2007 CHS Americana Music Tribute Series t-shirts to anyone wanting one, and will be seeking input on next years events and series.
We'll be seeing how things work with the new management at the wheel house, jimmy c and amber, and hoping to help them get a little early boost to their efforts to create a good atmosphere in downtown parkersburg. HOpe to see you there, and bring a friend, and spread the word.
