Richard de Lone Surprises

How intriguing: I’ve heard a wild rumour going around the San Francisco Bay Area that Star Names could be amongst the Special Guests at the 7th Annual Richard de Lone Special Housing Project Benefit.

Even if the Surprise Guests at the concert, held at Bimbo’s 365 club in San Francisco on October 6, don't include any shocks for you, the concert promises to be a WOW! Especially, if one is besotted with bluegrass, Americana and rockabilly, which will be exquisitely delivered by some of the genres’ most starry and scintillating musicians around:

Austin and Caroline de Lone

Nick Lowe, Boz Scaggs, Buddy Miller, Loudon Wainwright III, Jim Lauderdale, Bill Kirchen, the Legendary Austin de Lone and his talented daughter Caroline de Lone  ..... as well as the RDSHP Rockers.

The concert, which  will undoubtedly blast the club's roof off its rafters is guaranteed to be a heart warming rock fest for a worthy cause.

Richard de Lone was born with Prader-Willi Syndrome, and the de Lone family (Austin, his wife Lesley and Caroline) hold a concert every year for their son's Special Housing Project, a non-profit organisation with the goal of building a state-of-the art residential community for children and adults with Prader-willi Syndrome, a rare and complex genetic disorder with no known cause or cure. For more information, visit the RSHIP site.

 The gig starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $50 and available from Bimbos 365 club's box office Monday through Friday from 10am-4pm. There will also be a limited number of ringside tables available for $450, includes special seating for four.

Robert Plant 

There will also be a Silent Auction with some really Drool to Have items including a wonderful Gibson Acoustic signed by Robert Plant, with photo; a Jimmie Vaughan Signature Model Gretsch Synchromatic; a beautiful Montage from Scaggs Vineyards; Sammy Hagar's autographed brand new cd along with his autobiography and a bottle of Beach Bar Rum; Patti Smith tour jacket, and more.

For more information, please visit Bimbo’s 365 club or call (415) 474-0365. You won’t regret it.
