The Old Whalers Church needs a paint job.

To help raise money for it while offering some solid tunes, there will be a "Let's Paint the Church" benefit concert featuring the HooDoo Loungers on Friday starting at 6 p.m. Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for 10 to 18-year-olds. The under-10 set can listen for free.

Bruce Beyer, who helped arrange the benefit, has said estimates for painting the church are more than $100,000. For the first stage, they're just looking to "clean the front up" to make it more presentable from the street.
