band that will reunite him with former Dramarama cronies CHRIS CARTER on
bass, MARK "Mr. E. Boy" Englert on guitar and CLEM BURKE (BLONDIE , IGGY,

VIOLENCE, HABITAT FOR HUMANITY, and the LIBERTY HILL FOUNDATION. The
proceeds from the Elvis Costello Tribute will benefit the good folks at the
USC NORRIS CANCER CENTER
