"Come on out and share and evening of straight ahead jazz with Craig Alston, Bob Butta, Romier Mendez, my homeboy Harvey Mason, and me – we’re both Atlantic City natives. This will be the first time the two of us will have played together since high school!!! We want to share the love that we will feel on stage with you. This will truly be a Very Special Onetime Performance. Hope to see your face in the place. " - John Lamkin
