 On Friday, July 20th, 2007 at 8PM, the Inter-Media
                        Art Center (also known as “IMAC”)
                        in Huntington, Long Island will present an evening with TEN
                        YEARS AFTER-  the special 40th
                        Anniversary Tour.In 1967, four young musicians from Nottinghamshire, England,
                      Leo Lyons, Ric Lee, Chick Churchill  together with
                      Alvin Lee, formed Ten Years After and
                      became one of the biggest names and the most explosive
                      quartet on the world stage.
  Their now legendary encore, "I'm Going Home"  performed
                      at The Woodstock Music and Arts Festival in August 1969,
                      was captured on film and exposed their jazz, blues, rock
                      amalgam to a large audience of movie-goers who were blown
                      away by the intensity of the band's performance when the
                      Academy Award winning documentary was released in 1970.
                      Their ten-minute appearance in the film is an acknowledged
                      highlight and established Ten Years After a
                      place in the rock history.       Sadly, Alvin Lee decided to go solo in 1975 and the group
                      disappeared from the scene.  A chance opportunity
                      early in 2002 for the three founder members of Ten Years
                      After --- Leo Lyons (bass), Chick
                      Churchill (keyboards) and Ric Lee (Drums)
                      to work together gave them an insight into the intense,
                      re-awakened interest in the band.  With the addition
                      of new band member, sensational, twenty-five year old guitarist
                      / vocalist Joe Gooch, instead of Alvin
                      Lee, they are recreating the music, energy and excitement
                      they have been known for over the past four decades.   Tickets for this performance are $40.00 ($30.00 for
