Tonight was the 1st Annual Frank Amato's Christmas Jam. There was a lot of local talent at this show and was great fun. Proceeds went to Make-A-Wish Foundation. The opening act was a band of 17 year old kids called "Recess." I was really impressed. They did some Journey and Guns 'n' Roses covers, and they even write their own music! Why do these kids not have a record deal!

They did a few original songs...
The vocals on "Sweet Child of Mine" aren't the best, but you MUST check out the guitar player!
The rest of the official part of the show featured local talent from some bands that actually had a hit or two:
Frank Amato, Beau Coup - HOST
Louie Severino, Beau Coup
Bill March, Beau Coup
Paul Sidoti, Taylor Swift Band
Joey DePasquale, Liquid, Disco Inferno
Andy Prainer, Twist
Tommy Amato, Pop Culture
Paul Christianson, Michael Stanley and the Resonators
Jennifer Lee, Michael Stanley and the Resonators
Steve Jochum, Wild Horses
Here they are doing some classic Raspberries, a local Cleveland band. Part of what made the night so fun, wasn't just the local talent, but they were also playing the hits made by our local talent.
