Wait, Brenly and Kasper are the Festunk brothers?

I need to admit partly the reason I’m posting this is because in the e-mail, Len referred to it as “inaugural” instead of “first annual” and any guy who realizes that nothing can be annual until the second year deserves a free plug.

Oh, and it’s not like he ever does anything for us or anything.

Be there, Thursday, January 18, House of Blues.  Come for the Len and Bob, stay for the Ryan Adams.

Chicago Cubs television announcers Len Kasper and Bob Brenly announced plans today (November 7, 2006) for their inaugural “Len & Bob Bash” concert that will be held Thursday night, January 18, 2007, at the House of Blues. Ryan Adams will be the concert headliner and all proceeds will be donated to Chicago Cubs Charities.

“Bob and I have both been treated so wonderfully by everyone in Chicago and we have been looking to find a way to give something back,” said Kasper. “We both love music and with the Cubs Convention set to start the next day, we hope this will be a fun and rewarding way to kick off the baseball season in Chicago.”

“When Len came to me with this, I thought it was a great idea,” said Brenly. “This is going to be a very fun show for a great cause. Chicago Cubs Charities does great work in town and we’re excited to be able to add our support with this event.”
