ABOUT GODFATHER FEST: Friends and Family of BFE Rock Club, we come to you with news that we hoped would never happen, but our own Frank Aluotto…Houston’s Godfather of Rock N’ Roll…needs our help. For the last 18 months, Frankie has been battling Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS Cancer), an incurable type of rare blood cancer. MDS affects bone marrow and prevent it from creating healthy blood cells. In recent months, the cancer has progressed to a point where it’s causing kidney failure, along with numerous other problems that are making it increasingly more difficult for him both physically, mentally, and financially. Frankie has been one of Houston Music’s most prominent members and served its community proudly for the last 31 years. BFE Rock Club and its sister venues throughout the years have given countless bands a place to start their journeys and hone their crafts, and to this day continues to be a home to so many of the city’s musicians and fans alike. Frankie is a man who has always been one of the first to give when someone is in need. He has hosted hundreds of Benefits and loves this city and its bands more than anything. We’re asking for the Houston Music Scene to please come together and help us give back to the man who has given so much to others in his time. We are in the preliminary stages of planning but a full weekend of music we’re calling GODFATHER FEST will take place on Friday March 8th and Saturday March 9th. If we have enough bands wanting to participate, we will add Sunday March 10th as well. We will also set up ways for people to make donations online, or in person at BFE Rock Club, during the time leading up to GODFATHER FEST in March. As it stands, we need to raise at least $20,000 and that number will likely keep growing in the coming months. If you are in a band and would like to take part in GODFATHER FEST, please reach out to Shane Ryan and/or Bill Thompson to make it happen. We want to thank each and every one of you in advance. Please help us get the word out for Frankie and share this post with everyone you know!
