Friday evening, February 27, 7:30 pm -- ROCK SHABBAT! in Worcester, MA:  (

I would like to personally invite all Hanashir list members from Boston, MA to
Hartford, CT from Providence, RI to Manchester, NH to my synagogue next Friday
evening for a very special Shabbat service All of these cities are about an hour
from Worcester ? and I think it will be worth the drive.

My synagogue, Temple Emanuel in Worcester, MA, is culminating its celebration of
Jewish Music Month with its inaugural ROCK SHABBAT! (or as I like to call it,
?Shabbat Plugged?) on Friday evening, February 27 at 7:30 pm, complete with a
full rock band lead by yours truly.  Featuring our phenomenal cantor, Cantor
Sally Neff (the hippest young cantor in all of New England), the service will
include the best of NFTY music by today?s most well-known Jewish recording
artists.  Original compositions by band members will also be featured, and these
tunes are beginning to be widely used by URJ camps and congregations across the
country.

Fellow HNites and Temple Emanuel members Peter & Ellen Allard (who will also be
leading a Family Shabbat Service at the Temple this Friday evening) will also be
taking part in this service, and Eric Komar is coming from New York just to be
part of this amazing ensemble of musicians.  Other list members participating in
this special service include my wife Beth Meltzer . . . and possibly some other
special HN guests (hmm . . . ).

If you happen to be visiting New England next weekend, you are welcome as well.
