This came out of the Queens section of the NY Daily News, and after further review, his MySpace page confirmed the show:

I bet that place will be mobbed on Saturday. The lack of any cost helps.

Hand is eh.... no heavy lifting with the left, but tuning is no prob!
I did a one-off with Doro in New Mexico last week - the casino supplied backline, so I tuned 2 gtrs and the bass.. then did line-checks... wish they were all like that ! It was like the reverse of progpower - one band, one set-up, no lugging!

The library show today was interesting to say the least. Most of the crowd was definitely made up of people who just go to library events on the weekend. One of the bandmembers before the show said to me discretely something like "these people aren't seriously here for the show, are they?" It was a good time though. Caffery wasn't allowed to swear, so at one point he spelled out the word hell instead of saying it which got a good laugh out of everyone, including himself.

Talked to him for a bit after the set, turns out the event coordinator at the library is a fan of his so she arranged everything. Overall, it was pretty cool! Can't complain about a free Caffery set
