Remember the Smithereens?

Pat DiNizio, lead singer of this Jersey band from the 1980s, performs solo July 18 in Baltimore to benefit former Raven Michael McCrary's fund for the PAL centers for at-risk kids. The event is cosponsored by the Baltimore Community Foundation. It's described as "an eclectic evening of acoustic music, fine wines and tapas" at the Silo luxury condos. Tickets are $60, 410-837-3630.

I saw The Smithereens play at Rams Head in Annapolis last January. It was a great show. They played all of their best known hits (A Girl Like You, Behind The Wall Of Sleep), and they shook hands and signed autographs after the show. $60 seems very reasonable for a small private show considering that I paid $40 for the show at Rams Head.
