Jam for George

Adelo at the 2007 Thirsty Ear Festival, Santa Fe

As previously threatened, friends of the late George Adelo have planned a musical memorial for the lawyer/guitar slinger.

The George Adelo Memorial Jam is scheduled to begin 7 pm Friday at Skylight Santa Fe.

From the event's Facebook page:

Please join us for an evening of music to celebrate the life of our dear friend George Adelo. The jam will be sign-up style. There will be a backline and house backing band: Mikey Baker-Guitar, Susan Hyde Holmes-Bass, Kirk Kadish-Keyboards, Baird Banner-Drums.

Musicians please bring your instruments for plug and play set up (except drums and keys) and have 1-2 songs ready to go. We encourage collaborations, back up singing etc. Let's make a joyful noise for Georgie Angel!
