Tonight! A benefit for Dyrk Burcie

From James Bristo, our favorite neighborhood policeman:

Dyrk Burcie is the four year old son of a Dallas Fire Fighter and is suffering with stage 4 liver cancer. Come help us raise a little money to help offset the growing medical bills that the family is going through. It’s tough enough to watch your child hurt so let’s help where we can. Join us for an evening of music with some of the area’s best artist. I will be hosting and would love to see you there.

Come out tonight, September 23rd at 7:30 pm, enjoy the show, and contribute to a great cause.

Tonight's Jazz Night is a benefit for Esther Phelps

Tonight's Jazz Night at the Amsterdam Bar is a benefit for Esther Phelps. Esther is the wife of North Texas bassist Drew Phelps, and right now she is battling breast cancer without insurance. Shelley Carrol and Brad Leali are dedicating tonight's performance to Esther and Drew.

The guys who play the jazz and the folks who run the Amsterdam Bar, along with all our fantastic regulars, would like to help this family that has been so good to so many people.

There's no cover and no fixed donation tonight, but every little bit that you can spare will help Esther and Drew at this critical point in their lives. Hopefully our little community can pull together and make a difference for them. So come out tonight and enjoy the jazz and the beer, and share the love.
