Sax man, Willie Sordillo leads the U2charist benefit for Massachusetts flood victims. If you haven't been, it's a U2 sing-along benefit sponsored by the church and loads of fun. Yes, yes, you might ask, "Does Marlene play U2?" In a former incarnation, I was actually in a "New Wave" band in Manila, which covered U2 and Echo and the Bunnymen (among others) and had a few goth followers. It's been awhile so this will be fun. Details of gig TBA, but I do know Doug Rich on bass is joining us as well!
