Top 10 Reasons to Attend the 2016 Dan's Best of the Best Celebration Concert
It’s time to celebrate, and EVERYONE’S invited! Now that the votes have been counted in the banner year of Dan’s Best of the Best 2016, some real revelry is in order! Party with the winners, voters and entire East End community at the biggest bash of the season—Dan’s Best of the Best Celebration Concert on Friday, November 11, at Suffolk Theater!
This year, the planet’s mightiest mash-up band, New Life Crisis, headlines the party as we celebrate their induction into the Dan’s Best of the Best Hall of Fame! Plus, we will be honoring the true Best of the Best: America’s veterans—and a portion of proceeds from the evening will go to benefit the Riverhead VFW Post 2476 Van Rensselaer Skidmore!
There are countless reasons to be there on November 11, but let’s start with the Top 10:
1. New Life Crisis
New Life Crisis needs little introduction. When Paul Mahos, Jeff Allegue, Rob Woebber and John Sawicki start to groove, you know it’s a party. New Life Crisis has rightfully earned themselves a place in the Dan’s Best of the Best Hall of Fame, and they will officially be inducted during this momentous evening. Expect to hear their legendary mash-ups of tunes from Elvis, Johnny Cash, The Beatles, Billy Joel, U2, Marvin Gaye and more. Plus, the band will be serving up a special Americana-themed set in honor of Veterans Day!
2. Honoring the Best
Nobody defines that term “Best of the Best” better than our nation’s veterans. With the Dan’s Best of the Best Celebration taking place on November 11, a portion of proceeds from concert ticket sales and the night’s silent auction will benefit the Riverhead VFW Post 2476 Van Rensselaer Skidmore.
3. The Silent Auction
Concert goers will be able to bid on a unique selection of silent auction items, including merchandise and experiences from Best of the Best winning businesses, limited edition Dan’s Papers canvas cover prints—always a must-have item!—and, back by popular demand, the chance to win a night on the town with Dan’s Papers founder Dan Rattiner himself, which Dan will write about in an issue of Dan’s Papers in 2017! Remember to bid generously, as a portion of proceeds will be given to our local veterans, the Riverhead VFW Post 2476.
4. Suffolk Theater
One of the most stunning venues on the East End, the beautiful, historic Suffolk Theater hearkens back to an oh-so-glamorous time gone by. Soak in the splendor, bask in the Art Deco splendor—we dare you to NOT to take a selfie! #DansBestoftheBest2016
