Page 10 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 18, 2023 New England legends DGC perform as part of Veterans Benefi t Concert Series with special guests D yer – Goodwin – Chakour return to Kowloon, to help close out Rockin’ 4 Vets, 2023 Summer Sun*Days Benefit Concert Series. If last year’s show was any indication of what is to come; it will be a fitting close to summer. The names Dyer – Goodwin – Chakour may not mean anything individually to music fans, but I’m willing to bet if you follow rock music you have seen them perform somewhere between 2,000 seat theatres and 200,000 seat stadiums. They were long-time key members of bands such as Woodstock legend Joe Cocker and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, Tina Turner, as well as Boston’s own J. Geils Band and the Mohegan Sun AllStars. Among the hundreds of shows the three of them have done are Tina’s incredible “Break Every Rule World Tour”, and Cocker’s “Unchain My Heart World Tour”. Performed on records by artists, aside from Turner and Cocker, such as Robert Palmer, Ric Ocasek, and James Montgomery. Joining DGC on stage will be longtime members of the band and stalwart members of the New England muMedford Community Chorale Fundraiser Night J oin us for dinner on Thursday, September 7, between 3–11 p.m. at The Ford Tavern (61 Locust St., Medford) for Medford Community Chorale Restaurant Fundraiser Night.

RESNEK| FROM PAGE 9 false affi davits to a court, Philbin said it hasn’t. Philbin was then asked about his sworn answers to the mayor’s interrogatories when the lawsuit was first filed while under approval of counsel – signed on Jan. 13, 2022. Interrogatory answer #2, Medford Community Chorale given under oath, was about his duties and responsibilities concerning the newspaper’s operation and publication. Philbin answered that he was not substantially involved in the operation or publication, according to the exhibit provided by Atty. Robbins. Interrogatory answer #6 asked for the names, addresses and dates of employment of all Leader Herald employees in the past fi ve years who have assisted Resnek in drafting, editing, revising or confi rming the accuracy of any article concerning the plaintiff , Carlo DeMaria. Philbin’s answer stated that from time to time he shared information with Resnek regarding potential articles to be published but, “was not substantially involved” in the newspaper and its publication. Atty. Robbins submitted Exhibit 11, a text dated Aug. 4, 2020, between himself and Resnek, which stated, “All articles still get sent to me and Elena and Kay. Thanks.” Elena Vega was his former director of operations, and Kay Donovan is his aunt, whom he stated worked for free but is also a partner in his marijuana company in Revere. Philbin confi rmed that the text was his instructions to Resnek. In a second exhibit marked Exhibit 12, the attorney showed Philbin a Nov. 24, 2020, email where Resnek writes to Philbin, “Matt, this is everything you need to see. We corrected the sacro [sic] ad with mistaken spelling of Jim Soper’s name.” “A mistake which you had pointed out to Mr. Resnek in a prior draft, correct?” “Yes. Correct,” stated Philbin. In Exhibit 13, Resnek sends a text to Philbin on April 6, 2021, at 7:38 p.m. asking, “I am assuming we are all set?” “You would typically let him know when you were okay with the newspaper being published, correct?” asked the attorney. “Not all the time,” he replied. In the next text, at 9:21 p.m., Philbin sends Resnek a text in response with a “thumbs-up” emoji. When asked for confi rmation that it was his approval to Resnek to publish the edition, Philbin dismissed it as just an emoji reply. Atty. Robbins followed-up with an April 13, 2021, text from Resnek at 6:44 p.m. stating, “You have the paper at MTP [a reference to Philbin’s email address]. It should have your approval.” Philbin responds to Resnek 24 minutes later, “Looks good.” Resnek replies, “Thank you. Strong paper.” Strong paper indeed – for the mayor. sic scene, drummer, Marty Richards and bassist Wolf Ginandes; who are also are/ were members of the Mohegan Sun-All-Stars and the Joe Perry Project. Special guests on the bill will be Brian Templeton of the “Delta Generators”, “Radio Kings” and the “Proven Ones” fresh off an extended European tour.
