Thanks Todd. This will be a wonderful event at every level. First, it will be nice to give back to a really great guy. Beard is a really good guy. Second, the music lineup is outstanding. Third, it's all ages, so bring the family. It's a great chance for younger people to get out and hear some really good music. Finally, the patio is a wonderful spot to hear music. This could be one of the coolest music events of the year.

Add Brave Combo to the list! The lineup and details are according to http://ghostofblindlemon.blogspot.com/:
Beloved Deep Ellum and Club Dada icon and door guy, John “Beard” Brewer was hospitalized on October 12th and spent 6 days in Parkland Memorial Hospital’s ICU unit until being transferred and ultimately released from a regular room on Friday, October 19th.
When friends found out that Beard had no medical insurance, an idea for a benefit was born.
On Sunday, October 28th Club Dada will present a BEARD-A-FIT.
Cover is a minimum donation of $10 and all proceeds will go to pay Beard’s medical bills.
The doors open at 11 a.m. and the event is open to families and folks of all ages.
Sunday’s Beard-A-FIT stars the likes of Brave Combo, David Garza, The Backsliders and more.
