FYI - I am hosting "An Evening with Rockapella to Benefit the Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy" on Saturday, November 12, 2005 starting at 7:30 at The Bushnell in Hartford, CT. Tickets are $35 each reserved seat and are available through the Bushnell's box office ( 860-987-5900,

Great seats are still available! Contact me directly for tickets within 3 rows right at the stage ( in the orchestra pit ). I can be reached at concertforpsp@yahoo.com.
All proceeds from this event will be given to the Society for PSP a non-profit organization dedicated to providing support and education to people with PSP, their families, and health care providers. PSP is a fatal degenerative brain disease that causes complete disability by progressively impairing all movement, balance, vision, speech and swallowing. It has no known cause, cure or treatment. I lost my father to this relentless disease 2 years ago and would like to see a cure found so no one else has to watch their loved one go through what he did! Its a disease tipically in older people but we are all getting older - we may all be at risk some day!
Discovery Health recently aired a special on actor Dudley Moore. He lost his battle with PSP in March of 2002.
