ITPalooza House Band spotted near Boca – Concert Tickets Available

Collage-Band-Thumb-1To avoid the throngs of young groupies and paparazzi, The ITPalooza House Band is putting in the practice hours at a private undisclosed location somewhere in the Boca area. Band leader and drummer Lenny Chesal was quoted as saying “The band is in great shape and we’re looking forward to rockin’ the house at ITPalooza”

For the paste several weeks, rumors about the bands new line up and guest artists have been flooding the news desk. One of our undercover reporters was able to catch up with Lenny at a charity function “We have a great new percussionist, he adds a lot of zest to the line up” Said Chesal before he was driven away by a large black limo.
