DESCRIPTION:Elisa M Welch presents a fine evening of music and fun for the benefit of a 
 good cause: Marriage Equality USA and its fight to stop Prop 8, the 
 anti-marriage-equality initiative on November's ballot. Scheduled 
 performers include Tom Valtin & Friends, Go Van Gogh, and BHB. Marriage 
 Equality's own Molly McKay will also grace us with a song or two. Please 
 pay what you can, and dig deep if you are able. No one turned away. No on 
 8!\n\nFounded in 1998, Marriage Equality USA (www.marriageequality.org) is 
 a national grassroots organization whose mission is to secure legally 
 recognized civil marriage equality for all, at the federal and state level, 
 without regard to gender identity or sexual orientation.\n\nTom Valtin & 
 Friends (www.tomvaltin.com) is guitarist, songwriter, and singer Tom 
 Valtin, joined by pedal-steel wizard David Phillips and guitarist John 
 Parsons. They'll present an opening set of heartfelt original songs and 
 covers.\n\nGo Van Gogh (www.govangogh.net) features sax star and composer 
 Connie Walkershaw and her bass-playing paramour, Jesse; "Bakersfield" Brad 
 Bechtel on lap steel; "Swiss Ms" Michele Walther on violin; "He put the P 
 in Punk" Paul Bergmann on guitar; and "Klassic Kool" Kelvin Burton on 
 drums. They serve up a mix of klezmer, ska, Western swing, and Ingredient X 
 that's so hot, it's melting the pot.\n\nBHB, sometimes known as the Bryan 
 Harrison Band (bryanharrison.net), is an eclectic quartet whose three-part 
 harmony vocals really shine. Founder & guitarist Bryan Harrison writes 
 compelling songs about personal love and heartache and social and political 
 issues. Jim McLaren adds covers of Dylan, Neil Young, Rolling Stones, plus 
 some choice originals, all on solid rhythm guitar and tasty harmonica. 
 Elisa M Welch injects another dose of originals and covers, playing 
 whichever instrument she can lay her hands on. Dave "Djembe" Coan binds it 
 all together with multitimbral rhythms on his expressive West African drum. 
 Bonus question: what else could BHB stand for?\n
