  1. We, (The band TRIBUTE) had a great time at this event. The heat that was given off by that boat was astounding. It’s events like these that make it so important to support a place like LIMM. Hopefully we will play it again next year. We would love to hear from people that attended. Leave a comment in our guestbook at http://www.tributeLI.com. Thanks, your support is greatly appreciated.
