Night Out for NoDef Unfolds Tonight on Frenchmen.jpg) There won't be a red carpet and the guest list is out in the open for everyone to see, but we did manage to get Harry Shearer for our benefit! This evening, Night Out for NoDef rolls into Blue Nile on Frenchmen Street, with proceeds helping NOLA Defender recover losses from a recent burglary that wiped out the upstart publication's technological capabilites. 'Beasts & Brass' Benefit Punctuates Chef Nathanial Zimet's Return to the Kitchen In New Orleans, sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference between a block party and a benefit. This weekend’s Beasts & Brass—a food-and-music spectacular to raise money for Boucherie chef Nathanial Zimet—promises to be a little bit of both. Sunday at the Howlin’ Wolf, the community continues to rally in support of Zimet, who was shot three times in May outside his home in an attempted robbery after staying late at the restaurant to prepare food for the next day’s Bayou Boogaloo festival. Verti Marte Benefit Coco Robichaux knows a little something about fires; so, who better to headline an event to benefit the employees of the now incinerated Verti Marte. Anyone who has been hungry (and/or drunk in the Quarter) at any hour, but especially a late one knows the Verti Marte, and their tolerant staff. Now, out of a job, the community has banded together to throw a mega-concert and auction to benefit the now jobless staff and their family. It all goes down June 21 from 4 to 4 at the Dragon's Den. Info here!
