I know not many of you are Paul Revere fans, but he's fighting cancer right now and needs all the prayers and good thoughts he can get. I've had the honor of getting to know him over the past few years. He's one heck of a guy. He and his band played countless free shows on Veterans day at the Ride to the wall events in Washington DC. Played a free show a few years back on Thanksgiving for thousands of soldiers heading to Iraq. He had a DVD made of that and every penny from the sales of it goes to needy veterans groups. 3 years ago a DJ he knew in Boise was fighting cancer and had next to nothing in the way of insurance. Paul got together several bands from the 60's to play a benifit for him, including the Raiders. Even though he wanted to keep it a secret, word got out that Paul payed for the venue and the expenses of all the bands involved, out of his own pocket. There are dozens more stories of the things he's done like this through the years for other folks. Now he's the one that needs help.
Please add him to you prayers and good wishes. Thanks, Bob. |

He's got mine!
What if the Hokey Pokey really IS what it's all about?
My neighbor rang my doorbell at 2:30 a.m. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 a.m.!? Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums. |

One of my favorites from the "Shindig" days. I wish him all the best.

Dick Clark also produced a show they starred in for a several years, "Where The Action Is". His band is going to keep playing shows without him. They have changed the name to "Paul Revere's Raiders".

I remember the "Where the Action Is" shows on TV in the afternoons after school. They were great. If you're close to him Dr. Delusion, please tell him a long time fan is praying for him.

Will do, also on The Paul Revere and The Raiders website they have a guest book where fans can send greetings and well wishes to him. Paul reads it pretty much every day.
