Hi Lorenzo,

I've attached a copy of the flyer and press release for our event on
November 8th. Please feel free to forward this email to your loved
ones and anyone else who would be interested. I mentioned to some
people that you'd be there, and we're all very excited to hear some of
your music again!

Many Thanks,

Joseph
