On June 19, 2008, Max and Ira performed at the RETROFEST 16 Benefit Show at  THE TRIAD, 158 West 72nd Street, NYC, NY.  Their set consisted mainly of songs performed with Bert Sommer at the original Woodstock Festival.  Below is a handbill from the event.  Click here for a video of Ira and Max performing "America" at The Triad.  Below the handbill are photos from the show.

Below left is a shot of Max's sister Susan with Ira, and on the right with Max and Ira is Peter Sabatino, the lead singer of The Vagrants (Leslie West's first NY band).  Ira hadn't seen him in forty years!

The Concert on the Green on June 24, 2007 went over well!  Above is a shot of Ira and Max performing at the event.  The photo was taken by Bryan Haeffele for the Redding Pilot.  We would like to thank him for giving us permission to use it on this site.  

Below is an excerpt from an e-mail that Ira received from someone that attended the concert:

Hi Ira, 
I wanted to thank you for letting us know about your concert on Sunday.  Alexa and I had a great time!  She was dancing away all night!   I had many friends in Redding and used to be one of those children running around the green on Sunday nights!  What a blast!  You are incredibly talented and completely in your element on stage and your wife has the voice of an angel!  
Thanks so much!!!
