The four or five thousand of you who came out to Celebration for sax-man Joseph Vincelli and guitarist Jeff Golub already know what an awesome show they both put on. It was a fun event with plenty of good food and good music from evening into the night.

How about sending a thank you note to your friends at WLOQ (programming@wloq.com) for putting the concert together?!

Orlando's Ron Cangro,

for Vincelli when the regular drummer doesn't make the
road trip.

The day was light 'n bright
when saxophonist Joseph
Vincelli took the stage. He
performed a great set
(complete with encores)
before the day was done.





The temperature got cooler
and the music got hotter as
the day turned into night.




Vincelli signed CDs (and the back of a dress ...!) and talked with listeners at the WLOQ tent.





Guitarist Jeff Golub had to "cut the cake" before fans would let him wrap-up his set.
