Email From: Tom Soares <tsoares@scpublicity.com>
Subject: July 11th show
Here are the details about the July 11th benefit show that Jim will perform at. I have been asked to stress the June 30 deadline to RSVP for the Semenske Scholarship. They need to give the Brookfield zoo an accurate count on July 2 and the foundation doesn't want to lose money by paying for more food than people that show up. Nor, do they not want to have enough food. They'd hate for people to pay $25 to hear Jim for a half hour and not get any food, etc. This sounds like a great time for a great cause :)
WHEN: Friday, July 11 - 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Food served from 6 to 8 p.m.
WHERE: Brookfield Zoo- Free parking in the South lots off Golf Road.
Mention you are coming to the fundraiser- the Zoo will be open until 6 p.m.
WHAT: Great catered picnic fare including- Hamburgers and Cheeseburgers, Chicago-style Hot Dogs, Roasted Chicken, Potato Salad, Marinated Pasta Salad, Seasonal Fruit Salad, Ice Cream Novelties, Soft Drinks
AND: Karaoke, Raffle, Softball, Door Prizes, and the 4th Annual Silent Auction with beautiful homemade and one-of-a-kind items!
Jim is scheduled to play from 7:30 to 8:00 pm. COST: $25.00 Adults (Children 3 and under are FREE) $15.00 Children 4-10, RSVP to the Aaron Semenske Scholarship Foundation at (708) 387-9059

Email From: "American English" <marty@americanenglishbeatles.com> Subject: AE And Special Guest! Hi Everyone! This Thursday August 24th American English perfoms a special concert for The Oak brook Park District with very special guest Louise Harrison (George's sister). The show will feature George and should be a whole lot of fun with a few surprises too! The address is 1450 Forest Gate Dr. in Oak Brook Il. Showtime is 7:30pm. We'd like to also inform everyone that Sam Leach (the original Beatles promoter from Liverpool) is now here promoting American English for the summer. If you haven't read his book "Birth Of The Beatles" it's an amazing personal insight on the Liverpool scene in the 60's and Sam will be available to meet and personally sign them for you. Hope to see everyone soon! American English

Thu 7/31/03	Tom Doody's Shames (Not Chicago's own The Cryan' Shames: www.cryanshames.com,) Featuring Tom Doody, the original lead vocalist of the Cryan’Shames, performing their classic rock hits.
Email From: RBrandt900@aol.com Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2003 16:58:40 EDT Subject: The Cryan' Shames Featuring Tom Doody Appearing Live!!! To: Dear Fans Of Cryan' Shames Music! It is my most sincere honor to announce that Tom Doody, the original lead singer from The Cryan' Shames, is in town to perform a free concert this Thursday (July 31st) from 7:30 - 9:00 P.M. for the Oakbrook "Music In The Park" 2003 Summer Concert Series. The stage will be set up near the Central Park Gazebo located at 1450 Forest Gate Road, near Jorie Blvd. in Oakbrook. Weather permitting, this venue provides a "Ravinia-type" setting but without the driving, parking or prices. Tom and his band will faithfully recreate the musical magic and perform all of the radio hits as well as selected album cuts from the Cryan' Shames' vast repertoire. Along with music from The Cryan' Shames you will hear some refreshing sixties cover material that the band has chosen just for this show. Think Beach Boys, Jefferson Airplane and Janis Joplin. The work and passion that has gone into preparing for this concert will be evident once Tom and the band get started so you won't want to miss this very special night of Cryan' Shames music sung by the original voice that made them legends of the Chicago 60's music scene. For concert information and driving directions, please use the following links: obparks.org [ General Information ] MapQuest: Maps: map We truly look forward to seeing all of our friends again. And thanks especially for your continued support ... that's the reason we're doing this!!! Ron, Tom, Paul, Tim and the newest new band members Kim and Dave. P.S. If you think of someone else who would like to see this concert, please forward this mail to them ... thanks!
