Shep Meyers' Performance Schedule

Dear Janis and Kristin,

We are so pleased, but not surprised, that the turn-out for Shep by musicians, family, friends and fans was so abundant.

We all love Shep! And I agree Kristin, I wish we could celebrate Shep every night, like we did last Sunday at Croce's.

But do know, that every Tuesday is "Shep Myer's Night" at Croce's, in memory of the decades of jazz Shep played at the club.

Shep will never be forgotten! It is wonderful that with the help of Holly, Mike, Dave and all the terrific musicians that paid tribute to Shep last Sunday that a generous donation was raised that will be given to the Oak Park Music Conservatory in Shep's memory, to keep Shep's passion for music alive.

Thank you also for the terrific photos!

With love,

Ingrid and Jim

Hey Folks,

What a show on Sunday night! Thanks to Ingrid, Holly, and Mike for making this all possible. Thanks to all of you that came to show your support. To those who played and sang your hearts out, you were beyond incredible. Shep would've been proud to see his friends in the same room for his celebration. His energy was definitely present or at least I would like to think so. I loved that there was a line to get into the event...so cool and very telling of how much Shep has touched so many people. I wish we could do this every Sunday night.

That night we were able to raise approximately $5440 for the Oak Park Music Conservatory. That does not include the donations that were also made to Jazz 88 in memory of Shep. Janis (mom) is going to the school tomorrow to give them the proceeds. We are hopeful that several children are able to develop a passion for playing an instrument as a result of this donation.

Please check out the amazing photos taken Sunday night by Pablo (Shep's Bro-In-Law).
