AMERICAN ROOTS ALL STARS CONCERT/BENEFIT

This is not an open mic night, but rather a fund raising – hair raising show of your favorite American Roots All Stars in concert performing full sets of their music.
American Roots ALL Stars in Concert requests a minimum $5 contribution at the door, however, more (if you can afford it) will be graciously accepted. You will receive 2 raffle tickets for each $5 contribution you care to make. There will be 3 BIG ticket drawings this night for some very special gifts including an autographed guitar by all the All star performers. Proceeds go to the American Roots Movement to off-set the expense of featuring 3 American Roots Live shows in 3 states each week and launching our TV show. Yes, come watch us grow. Your support is greatly appreciated!

AMERICAN ROOTS LIVE REVIEW 23 BY NASTY NED
Opening night of American Roots Live in our new home was nothing short of spectacular! Crossroads, down in Garwood could have been where two dirt roads meet in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Not that all performances in Garwood Wednesday night were the blues, but they definitely where real. They were real, honest, rootsy and enthusiastic – and for me – that’s as good as music gets.
Our thanks to, and appreciation of, one Mr. John Powers continues to grow and multiply as American Roots Live gains more and more momentum as the weeks tick by.
John Powers, an amazingly talented songwriter and guitarist supported by unique vocal abilities is in my opinion, the future of music. And he is the epitomy of what our movement is all about. John Powers is a young man who "gets it" – and he’s giving it back. Do yourself a favor and come to American Roots Live to see and hear what he is about. Joe Taino did.
American Roots Live 23 was replete with awesome performances by the likes of The Wiliamzboy – the newest American Roots All Star, Kate Weber, Mark Weber, the 9 piece Bassboards Blues Band, Robert Z, Ed Pampani, JR Bradfield, Bones Sanford, Jimmy Somma, Rich Senatore, my man Freddie Farrow, Brad Sicotte, Michael Krizan and his band of Monkeys, Brad Sicotte, Newcomers Pete Lutz and Gabe Perry, blazing guitarist Sonny Young from Easton, Pa., Miss Arlene Schar from Hellerstown, Pa., Ron Poppa, Jeff Page, EJ Rice, Josh Gebhart and the super sounds of guitar legend Bernie "BB" Brauswetter.
Thanks to Kenny Allen, Eddie Szeliga and Crossroads management and staff; Lee, Ronnie, April, Mike, Pam and Derek. Special thanks to our sponsors, volunteers and supporters; Win of Elliott Newcomb Designs, Amelia Lange, Jamie Flynn, Big Boy Kenny Nerback, Arnie Englund, Mary Anne, Seamstress Sue, Arlene, Robert Z, Jack Powers, Ed Pampani, Eddie Ray of Computown, Manville Music, LouMarc Signs, SDC Studios, Elmore Magazine, Richard Skelly, Jersey Shore Jazz and Blues Foundation and ambassadors John Powers, HoneyBoy Dupree and Duane Chez.
We look forward to seeing you again down at the Crossroads and to a great opening night at The Bluetone Cafe in Easton, Pa starting next, and every Thursday. We’ve got two very special shows planned for you next week with big name players and some really cool gifts and prizes including the latest issue of Elmore Magazine and Elmore music compilation CDs, Nasty Ned autographed, show used harmonicas, some special surprises from both venues and the NEW American Roots T shirts! Don’t worry… if you don’t win one, they are available for sale at all American Roots Live shows while the supply lasts for $15. See you soon.
Keeping it real,
Ned
