In February, 2019, Joe and Rod played a memorable concert for us in the Sunday Street Series in the Gillespie Room at The Long Island Museum. We planned an encore concert for this February but, due to the COVID-19 situation, we’ll do this as a virtual event. The concert is a free event but viewer donations to the artists will be gratefully accepted.
