Woo-Who Half-time Show/Benefit Jam Next Weekend 

By Kaedy Kiely

I think the biggest thing I'm looking forward to with the Superbowl this Sunday is The Who's halftime show.  I cannot wait to see them!  I don't care much about who wins the game this time, though I'll bet the win goes to the team we Falcons fans love to hate -- The Saints. They certainly deserve the trophy this year.

I want to give you a heads-up on a special event I'm helping emcee that's taking place next Saturday night for the young niece of an old buddy of mine. "Atlanta Has A Heart" is a benefit concert/jam for three-year old Lana Turner, daughter of Brit & Shannon Turner. Brit is the drummer for Blackberry Smoke. Lana was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma Cancer in December 2009 and is currently undergoing chemotherapy. 100% of the proceeds will go to The Lana Turner Cancer Fund.

A Night of Music - Hope - Love!  is at the Peachtree Tavern in Buckhead on Saturday Feb.13. 
The party starts at 8:00 with GRIP, Atlanta's #1 Party & #1 Requested Biker Band! An All Star Music Jam will include appearances by:
