HAPPY to announce "4th of July Spirit Concert" especially performed for and broadcast to our senior citizens. This half hour TV show will air 10 different times on local-access cable channels in the greater Portland Metro area and in Salem — featuring patriotic favorites including all five Military Branch songs and Americana Music gems like Arlo Guthrie's, "City of New Orleans." Please, get the word out to all your senior friends and relatives.
