Anybody know where or when??? Calling Jim Sangrey.... Quote
Soul Stream Posted September 8, 2005 Author Report Posted September 8, 2005 Just to let you know, I e-mailed Bennie and he's going to get back to me with the details of the gigs. I'll post them when I get them.... Quote

JSngry Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 FEMA must be handling the publicity. Quote
kh1958 Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 If FEMA's the promoter, they'll probably be forced to play Kenny G songs. FEMA must be handling the publicity. ← Quote
Soul Stream Posted September 9, 2005 Author Report Posted September 9, 2005 Bennie sent me an e-mail and said it would be best to call SGI-USA Dallas. They also have a website. This seems to be a Budhist endeavour for Hurricane relief. They have 2 shows...one tonight and one tommorrow at 2 p.m. it seems. When I called the lady said the venue location had been changed and didn't know to where. Said to call back but was very nice. I'm not sure what the situation is, but it may not be a traditional concert as we think of it...she was surprised I called and said I would be welcome as her guest,ect... Anyway, Jim Sangrey and others....Buster Williams and Bennie Maupin are in your town tonight.... Quote

Soul Stream Posted September 10, 2005 Author Report Posted September 10, 2005 I thought I might be able to make this as I had a possible gig up in Dallas this weekend, but it didn't happen. Wish I could see this, but hopefully someone from the Dallas chapter of organissimo can make it.... Quote
JSngry Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Can't make either night, dammit. Quote
Soul Stream Posted September 10, 2005 Author Report Posted September 10, 2005 Can't make either night, dammit. ← That's too bad Jim. Guess the stars didn't line up right. Wonder if Big Al might make it, he's a Dallas guy ain't he?? Quote
