Benefit Show March 25th for David Michael Shadrick at the Raven

On Sunday March 25th from 3:00 – 8:00 the Not Dead Yet Blues band will be hosting a benefit for David Michael Shadrick at the Raven in Burlington.

David was diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus in July of 2006. He was hopeful for a recovery after undergoing chemotherapy treatments and radiation, followed by surgery in October. Unfortunately, the cancer has resurfaced and there is no treatment available at this time. David has been referred to Hospice of Guilford County for at home care.

David served in the United States Army from 1972 to 1974 as a communications specialist and has worked for Cable TV in Greensboro and Burlington for 32 years. He has been married to his wife Jennifer, a Greensboro City employee, for 29 years and has two children, Kristin, a sophomore at UNC - Charlotte and David Michael Jr who works at Advance Auto in Greensboro, and two grandchildren, Rebecca Nichole Shadrick, 5, and Zackary David Shadrick, 8 months.

His wife Jennifer says that the support from David’s co-workers at Time Warner during this tragic time has been overwhelming and the family is very grateful for their love and compassion.

Julian Doby, the owner of the Raven, has graciously allowed us to use his club as the venue for this benefit. The Raven is located at 971 Kirkpatrick Rd in Burlington. Admission is $5.00. The entertainment will be provided by several local bands including the The Piedmont Blues Preservation Society Board Band, The Miles Blues Band, The Matt Hill Band, Bandit & Friends Band, AKA Band, The Impacts, and the Not Dead Yet Blues Band as well as others. More details and a schedule will be posted as soon as the lineup is finalized.

a silent auction is also planned.
