Via email from manager Terry Perkins, we learn that charity-minded chanteuse Anita Rosamond sang "The Star Spangled Banner" at Busch Stadium before today's baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers. Rosamond also was scheduled to pay a visit to longtime announcer and fan favorite Mike Shannon in the Cardinals' radio broadcast booth, the better to plug Someone To Watch Over Me, the compilation CD created last year by Perkins, Rosamond and a number of other St. Louis musicians to benefit the BackStoppers.
According to the BackStoppers' Web site, copies of the CD are still available at St. Louis area Schnucks, Dierbergs and Borders locations, Webster Records, Euclid Records, and through the BackStoppers office. All proceeds go toward the organization's work on behalf of the families of police officers, fire fighters and emergency medical personnel who have been killed in the line of duty.
In other Rosamond-related news, one of her "Cabaret in Blue" performances last weekend at the Cabaret at Savor was reviewed for KDHX (FM 88.1) by theater critic Chuck Lavazzi. You can read the review online here.
