Danvers residents knew the voice before millions of others did. And now many of them are paying tribute to the deceased former lead singer of the band Boston through a benefit concert which will be held to establish a scholarship in his name at his alma mater, Danvers High School.

The idea came to Danvers patrolman Dana Hagen one evening as he heard a Boston song played on the radio shortly after Brad Delp s unfortunate passing. Delp was so genuine to so many people in town and he was one of Danvers finest, so why not do something?

Hagen quickly surrounded himself with a committee of volunteers, many of them graduating with Delp in the Danvers High Class of 1969. A venue ebony porn was secured, tickets have been printed, and a website www.braddelp.org has been created-all with the goal of establishing a scholarship in Brad s name to be presented to a Danvers High School graduate pursuing a degree in Music.

The concert will feature members of Ernie and the Automatics, 97 North, a reunion of Delp s early band called the Monks, . The concert will take place on Friday July 13, 2007 at 7:00pm at the Danversport Yacht Club and will include a silent and live auction. Tickets are available available from the www.braddelp.org website. Donations to the fund may also be through the website.
