JOHN PRINE TRIBUTE & FOUR MILE FIRE BENEFIT CONCERT

PRODUCED BY AWNRY GIRL PRODUCTIONS

WED SEPT 15 OSKAR BLUES LYONS 7PM

Dear Friends and Neighbors-
This month's tribute to John Prine comes on the heels of the devastating The Boulder County Four Mile Fire. Awnry Girl Productions along with Oskar Blues will be hosting a benefit to raise money for the local Red Cross efforts. It is my life's work to be able to use not only my music but my music production company (Awnry Girl Productions) to bring awareness to causes local and world wide. After raising nearly $1,200 for The Haitian Earthquake for the BRESMA Orphanage in Port au Prince- I realized that it's the least I could do and having a stage, a guitar and a great wealth of musician friends and neighbors in the community, we are a group of people who truly want to help- This is jut one way we can make a difference.

Here's how you can help:
1) If you are a musician- I still have some slots to play a John Prine song at the Tribute. Please see list at end of email of songs already taken and choose one that's not taken. Please copy this info to your Facebooks, Twitters, Websites etc...

2) If you are a community member/friend and have a service or item to donate to a raffle please bring it to Oskar Blues ( or call me and I will come and get it) . We will also be selling raffle tickets for gift certificates and what ever I can manage to round up in the next week.

3)If you can help me collect items for the raffle please reach out to your friends who can donate something. Call me 970 531 6259

4) Come to the Tribute/Benefit and give what you can- $20 suggested but anything will help.

5) Donate: Toiletries, Diapers, School Supplies, Clothes to Kahlie Sue @ 326 Evans Lyons, Colorado for the Gold Hill and Ward Vol Fire Depts

6) Donate to the Red Cross Directly http://cbs4denver.com/reference/red.cross.statement.2.1900786.html

Chad, I played Prine music for 11 years professionally in the 80's and 90's. How's about Dear Abby and Grandpa was a Carpenter, and maybe one more from Eglee.
