An
impromptu performance in every sense was the Benefit Concert at the Silver
Screen Cinema and Comedy Club in Wellington.
Peter's Living Room and WRPBradio.com were
putting on a show that could hold its own among top musical events in South
Florida.
The opening act was played by Rick Seguso
with a series of songs, including "My Shangri-La". Next came Moe Jackson who
came for the event from Daytona Beach and performed a set of blues songs
such as "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" and other renditions.
The main act was Steelin' Time, and these
boys literally swept the audience off their feet. Fast paced and
professional, their music grabbed you and never let go until the very last
note was sounded. Amazing and thoroughly delicious music!
In order to fully appreciate the treat we
got that evening, one has to understand that at Silver Screen in Wellington
there is not a bad seat in the house. The audience is a part of the action
as much as the musicians seem to melt flawlessly into the crowd before their
performance.
A small, intimate movie theater/comedy
club/cafe, the Silver Screen has been a staple in Wellington's entertainment
for many years. but if you haven't been there in a while - what a surprise
is waiting for you!
You can have dinner, cocktails and some
ground shaking entertainment there. This evening was no different as the
musicians came out to play a benefit for the local chapter of the American
Cancer Society as well as the charities of the Neverending Necklace.
Thank you to the wonderful musicians who
came out to support charity work and to all who attended! Peter will
organize more concerts there, and I urge everybody to come and enjoy the
great entertainment that so many talented performers work for. You'll be
very pleased!
A heartfelt "Thank You" also goes to Peter
Wein and Liz from Silver Screen: you're definitely making that cafe/comedy
club a part of the local "Scene".
