Tonight at 8:30pm Greg’s band NDY (Not Dead Yet) will be playing at O’Gara’s party room “The Shanty” in St. Paul. The gig will benefit Kòt a Kòt, a non-profit that helps at-risk young women in Haiti, so there’s a suggested donation of $10 at the door. We hope as many of you as possible in the Twin Cities area will be able to join us. You’ll have a blast and do some good at the same time. What a deal!
