That’s right!

Slaj & Scharpf at the Friendly Tap

This Saturday, May 19, Slaj and Scharpf, music’s answer to Hannity and Colmes, bring their folk stylings to the Friendly Tap in a benefit for Father John Barkemeyer. Father Barkemeyer has recently returned to Afghanistan, where the war doesn’t end. For our soldiers, there is neverending duty, and they answer the call, day in, day out. A small donation (or large) benefits Father Barkemeyer, who in turn finds creative ways to help our military keep body and soul together in difficult circumstances. This is truly God’s work, but it can’t proceed without you, so come on out.

The fun starts at 7 and $10 will get you in (but you can donate more). If you’re under 21 you’re welcome, but will be carded at the bar. Slaj and Scharpf will be playing their usual mix, but word has it that a special tribute to Levon Helm is being contemplated. Guest starring with the dynamic duo is the popular Laura Butler. Come on out, especially if you’ve never had the pleasure, and support our chaplain and our men and women in Afghanistan. Let’s fill it.

NOT FOR THE WEAK OF HEART, EASILY OFFENDED or LACKING OF FUNNY BONE! Every Tuesday night at the Friendly Tap Is an unexpected, unscripted, pretty much unprepared mess of a musical conundrum. But somehow we get through it and each week gets better and better.

Tours welcome. One.Of.Us.
