Mark Pasquerilla & Ed Sheehan, Jr. turn 110!

Remember Mark's and Ed's 100th birthday party? It's time for their 110th! This year's theme is Still Kickin' After All These Years."

Join them and a few hundred friends on Thursday, Sept. 25 at 6:00 p.m. at the Pasquerilla Conference Center in Downtown Johnstown, PA. It will feature live music from the legendary Billy Price and Airborne (featuring Jeff Jimerson, the national anthem singer for the Pittsburgh Penguins), food, drinks and a lot of fun. There will be no long speeches or long formal program. The seating and dress will be informal.  The proceeds from this event will benefit the Community Foundation for the Alleghenies' Fund for the Future, the YMCA's capital campaign and JAHA's capital campaign. 

Our hope is that this party is large and fun, and that we will raise enough money to help the community! 

Tickets are $45 in advance or $50 at the door, and include food, soft drinks and beer. The menu includes a roasted pig, smoked BBQ pork and smoked beef brisket, baked chicken, hot dogs and hamburgers, and a variety of side dishes, snacks and desserts. For an additional fee, there will be a “dueling drinks bar” and specialty wine tastings.

Details on the evening's entertainment:

Billy Price: Blue-eyed soul man Billy Price has been entertaining audiences in western Pennsylvania and worldwide since performing in Pittsburgh with the Rhythm Kings in the early 1970s. Price's popularity and longevity in his adopted hometown and elsewhere isn't hard to explain. As Geoffrey Himes of the Washington Post has written, "Unlike so many blues revivalists, Price is not an imitation of better singers--he's the real thing." He’s a local favorite, and performs frequently in Johnstown at the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival (2012, 2010, 2006) and other venues.

Jeff Jimerson & Airborne: Jeff Jimerson is regarded by many as one of the finest vocalists Pittsburgh has ever produced. He is the primary National Anthem singer for the Pittsburgh Penguins and has also performed for the Steelers and Pirates. Appearing on several local compilation CD’s, he is a regular feature for seasonal fundraising events such as WTAE-TV’s Bundle Up Project, KDKA-TV’s Children’s Hospital Benefit, the 3WS Oldies Mass and WDVE’s Toys for Tots Benefit. Jeff is also an integral part of the “B.E. Taylor Christmas Show” performing annually throughout the east coast including their sold out shows at Heinz Hall in Pittsburgh.

His band, Airborne, has been together since 1990, and have performing individually throughout the tri-state area for over 20  years, with music styles ranging from the 40’s to today’s hits.
