Late, Late Notice Time: Kerry Holliday/DJ Shortee Benefit, Right Now

Argh. I meant to post about this this evening, but I stupidly got the times wrong, and tonight’s benefit up at The Continental Club for local scene/music store icon Kerry Holliday, aka DJ Shortee, who suffered a strike a month ago & is still a long ways from recovery, is going on right freaking now.

It started at 12PM, unfortunately, but it’s still going on — here’s the info I’ve got about it:

Kerry Holliday/DJ Shortee Benefit

Free admission (suggested donation $10 but ANYTHING helps).

Sunday July 18th
12 (noon)- 7pm

at the Houston Continental Club (Main Street at Alabama).

For those who don’t know, Kerry Holliday, long longtime fixture in Houston’s music scene promoting the Infinite Record Show, Austin Record Convention, and more recently spinning at Continental Club as DJ Shortee suffered a stroke a month ago. He’s conscious, alert, responsive, and improving but he’s still hospitalized (still can’t speak and has very limited mobility). Doctors say his recovery is progessing quickly considering the severity of what he suffered. Come help out.
