‘A Song For Sab’ Benefit Fundraiser for Peter Sabourin

I had the recent pleasure to attend a great benefit concert at Lake Affect in Port Credit on the Canada Day long weekend. ‘A Song For Sab’, a benefit fundraiser in aid of Peter ‘Sab’ Sabourin’s fight against lymphoma cancer.

Jerome Godboo

Hosted by Chuck Jackson & Mike Bullard, we where put as subjects to an amazing performance of a great smorgasbord of musicians. The Meteors along with the Sab Family house band where the backbeat to Jerome Godboo, Rik Emmett, Dave Rotundo, Jaye Baxter, Earl Johnson, Frank Cosentino plus Joe Mavety, Neal Chapman and quite a few of whom I didn’t know their names. But what a blast!

For your viewing pleasure I have put up a full gallery of select images from that show that can be found here.

Please contact me for any photo inquires, all proceeds will go to benefit Sab. I will figure a way to do that if I have enough inquires. Thanks
