John Robbins along with several other musicians from the All Star I conference have decided to collaborate on a CD of Star Island related
music. They are looking to recruit other musicians who care about Star to submit original music (or music that is not protected by a copyright) to the
CD project. The current plan is to put the CD together over the
course of this winter and next spring so that it can be sold on the
island next summer. ALL PROCEEDS from the sale of this CD will go to the
Star Island Annual fund.

Music should preferably be either be about Star, or written on Star or should reflect the spirit and feelings you have about Star Island. It should be noted, if the music is a cover song (popular song written by someone else), the
performer must get written permission from the writer/publisher or it
cannot be used on the CD.
If you know any one who might be interested in contributing, please contact John Robbins for details: Phone: 301-879-4826 (weekends and weekday evenings after 8PM only) Cell: 240-338-5704 Email: jcr@johnrobbins.us

Save Our Star Benefit Show - The Dejas at the Barley Pub on July 28, 9pm. Proceeds benefit Star Island. Minimum door fee $5 (larger donations greatly appreciated) www.myspace.com/thedejasmusic

So many of you know that YAC, YRUU and Dover Yoga have combined efforts to fundraise for Star Island in their time of needs. We are organizing concerts all over New England over the next six months to help benefit the island. We are kicking it all off with a benefit show at the Barley Pub on July 28 at 9pm. The Band the Dejas will be donating a % of their proceeds from door fees to Star Island. We are also in the works of organizing a Bluegrass Concert, a Yoga-a-thon and a NYC Concert all to benefit Star. In addition to our currently scheduled plans we are searching for bands/musicians/theatrical shows that are willing to donate a portion of the proceeds from one of their currently scheduled gigs to the island. In exchange for the donation not only will they be helping a worthy cause, but we will also advertise the show on the save our star website www.saveourstar.org, the Star Island website www.starisland.org, and if you are in the Seacoast area we will do our best to get your show listed in our local papers (the wire, portsmouth herald, fosters).  No show is too small… we will take all donations we can get!
