Mercury “Cover Your Ass!” Benefit Tomorrow Night!

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Wed, Jun 20 at 3:41 PM

Hey everybody! Don’t forget that tomorrow night, June 21, is our “Cover Your Ass!” benefit concert for the kids at Ethos (who provide music education for inner-city youth). Starting at 8 pm at the Crystal Ballroom, there will be NINE bands covering their favorite artists, and playing three songs each. Braille will be doing the Beastie Boys, Neverland will be covering the best of Michael Jackson, Sexy Pants will be performing Motley Crue, plus awesome songs from the Portland Cello Project, the kids from Ethos, Pure Country Gold, Alan Singley, the Do N Dudes, and even a performance from the Mercury All-Star band performing… well… here’s a hint. SEE YOU THERE! (P.S. it’s only five bucks!)

Um, dudes, that's SWEET. Not ELO - SWEET who also sang Ballroom Blitz and my personal anthem - Love is Like Oxygen.

Although with those 70's bands with shag hair cuts and ball hugging bell bottom pants, it's easy to get confused

Humpy, I didn't know your dad was in Sweet. That's um... Sweet!

Camarorush, Jeff Lynne of ELO had a dark brown 'fro and a beard.
