Big Shot to play ‘A Benefit Concert for Veterans’ on Long Island

Big Shot, comprised of Mike DelGuidice on lead vocals, Tommy Byrnes on lead guitar, Nick Dimichino on bass, Carmine Giglio on keys, Chuck Burgi on drums and John Scarpulla on saxophone will be performing “A Benefit Concert for Veterans,” where a part of the proceeds will help General Needs. Ironically enough, this event will be taking place nine days before this year’s Veteran’s Day holiday, which falls on Sunday, November 11, 2018.

Particularly impressive about General Needs is that it helps thousands of homeless veterans on Long Island, as well as their families through charitable donations and support. General Needs provides clothing, shoes, household items, toiletries and other basic necessities directly to local Long Island veterans in need.

To learn more about General Needs, visit their homepage.

For more information on this benefit show by Big Shot at The Paramount in Huntington, visit the venue’s official website.

Most recently, Big Shot played at Mulcahy’s Pub and Concert Hall in Wantagh for their annual summer Luau.
