Hank Williams Tribute / benefit this coming Friday night

I hope you'll come on out to the 3rd Annual Hank Williams Tribute this Friday, April 17th at the Dils Center in downtown Parkersburg. The Cajun Cook off will begin at 6 pm and the music will start at 8 pm. $5 for the Cookoff and $5 for the music are donations to the work of Children's Home Society of WV here in the Parkersburg area. The Cook off is a new twist to these benefits, and I hope folks will support it. The staff of the agency in the foster care program are the ones working on this part of the event, and will appreciate any help anyone feels inclined to give. Give us a shout during the week if you can help out.
The music will consist of sets by Jerry and Lisa Queen and the Neon Moon Band, and Stephen Peck, and Jonny Nutter. Jerry and Lisa have been with the Hank Tributes since they began 3 years ago, and Stephen and Jonny are "regulars" on the Americana tribute stages for our benefits. Last year, Jerry and LIsa brought a "crack" band, including a steel guitar that impressed everyone! Stephen is hoping Arthur Berg can join him again, they wow-ed the audience last year with a solid set, as well as their set at the Johnny Cash tribute earlier this year. Jonny has been working feverishly on his Hank tunes, and will put on a guaranteed great set.
We're going to have plenty of prizes and contests throughout, so come out an enjoy the fun. We've got CD's and such, and a few extra door prizes from the community, and some vinyl records I have dug out of the donations.
After two years at the Boreman Wheelhouse, this is our first venture to the Dils Center for a tribute / benefit, so we'll see how folks like this venue. Please pass the word around town, and come on out for a fine evening of music and Cajun food.
