Thanks to all to supported Old Fat Guy Idol 2014. As a result of your donations, we presented $4537 to Susan G. Komen – Chicago.
This was a year of transition for us. We’re fortunate in being able to use our talents to earn donations for a cause in which we all believe. Much consideration was given in choosing a recipient for our fundraiser, and how the event could be improved. We are a small group of unpaid volunteers, and appreciate your support.
What’s better than an Old Fat Guy? How about three Old Fat Guys, singing together. Here’s a quick glimpse of a song they will be performing together this Saturday, September 20, at Old Fat Guy Idol 2014.
The show starts at 7:00; no cover. Just vote for your favorite singer with a donation to Susan G. Komen® – Chicago.
Another talented member of our band, Keith Kowalewski. Usually a quiet guitar player, listen to his vocals in this Pink Floyd song.
Chuck and Larry look unusually animated during this rehearsal. What could they possibly be singing about? Are they asking for donations for breast cancer programs and research?
Come hear for yourself on September 20, 7:00 pm at Old Fat Guy Idol, Hinckley, IL.
There is no cover for an evening of live music.
One of the competition songs performed by Larry Meredith at Old Fat Guy Idol 2013, “Get Over It.” Listen to his fans chanting before the song begins!
In addition to the new competition songs, the Old Fat Guys are also bringing back old favorites. Remember Chuck’s great rendition of Tobacco Road a couple of years ago? Hear it again on September 20, at Brown Pub in Hinckley.
We not only have Old Fat Guys, but there’s a great band! We’re providing a full evening of music on September 20. The band will play an opening set, then back up the Old Fat Guys during the competition. After the winner is announced, the band and the rest of the Old Fat Guys will entertain you throughout the evening. They are donating their talents in hopes that you will make a donation to Susan G. Komen® – Chicago.
Practice, Practice, Practice.
It’s not a matter of showing up and singing. We’ve spent our summer having numerous practices, learning the new songs and rehearsing ones from years past. All for one night of entertainment and to earn donations for Susan G. Komen® – Chicago.
In this video, Bobby rehearses American Girl. Since this is a competition song, we’re only showing a segment. Be there September 20, at Brown Pub, Hinckley, to hear it in its entirety.
“,,,On the Cover of the Rolling Stone.”
