A lineup of local rock-and-roll royalty will take the stage at the Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett on Wednesday in a benefit for Joe O’Haire, a Montauk photographer recovering from an Oct. 17 motorcycle accident involving an 18-wheeler in Texas that left him with numerous broken bones and a collapsed lung. 

Mr. O’Haire “would do anything to help anybody he met in his travels. He is a funny, witty, compassionate, and supportive friend to all,” wrote Denis Carr of Livingston, Tex., who is coordinating an online fund-raiser via GoFundMe that recently crossed the $25,000 mark. 

Wednesday’s “All You Need Is Love Jam” at the Talkhouse will feature the Lynn Blue Band, Joe Delia and Klyph Black, Mamalee and Jim Lawler, Dalton Portella, and Simon Kirke and G.E. Smith. The show is from 6 to 9 p.m., and there will be an art auction and raffle prizes. General admission is $25, and V.I.P. admission is $100, all cash only.

A Renewed Focus on Fresh Fish

Dock to Dish, a restaurant-supported fishery cooperative founded in Montauk in 2012, has new owners and a renewed focus on getting fresh-from-the-boat seafood directly into the kitchens of restaurants across the East End and the New York area. And the fact that most of the owners are also fishermen doesn’t hurt.

It was severely decomposed," said Rob DiGiovanni, chief scientist for the Atlantic Marine Conservation Society.

On the Wing: Dawn Chorus in Spring

The dawn chorus of birdsong is different depending on your habitat, your location, and the time of year. Songbird migration will peak by mid-May. As songbirds migrate overhead during the night, they blanket the sleeping country with sound, calling to each other to keep their flocks together and tight. When they land, they sing us awake.
