"We're gonna be there on Saturday March 8, less than two weeks away," said Brian Templeton of Delta Generators as they prepare to come to Jamey's House of Music in Lansdowne, PA for an 8 p.m. March 8 show. "This is our first time there and we're very excited about it. I'm really happy we're going in there; I didn't even know about the place. Sallie Bengtson of Nola Blue Records hipped me to that because I had told her that I was looking for some places to play in her area and she suggested that place and luckily they were open. We hit at 8 p.m., I think they start serving food around 6 p.m."
