AV street correspondent John Duke sent in this invitation to come see two of his favorite local musicians:

Steve Balesteri and David Nolf

There are people that barbecue and then there are “Barbecue People.” Some of WNY’s best barbecue talent will be showcasing their ability to produce succulent, slow smoked ribs at Dunn Tire Raceway’s First Annual Rib Bash on Saturday, September 12, from 11am til dark. Lancaster’s Dunn Tire Raceway has a full bar, live entertainment, and fun for the whole family.  Join 103.3’s Shredd and Ragan for Summer’s Last Barbeque! Frontman Steve Balesteri along with David Nolf bring their bands to Dunn Tire Raceway Park for an end of Summer Gig to resist the Fall. This is a free event.

Nolf’s last big gig was opening for America at Artpark, so this show is instant karma: September 12 is the birthday of  Gerry Beckley, founding member of America. Balesteri promises to roll out a couple of the band’s new songs to mark the occasion.
