Regina Opera is a small opera company in Bensonhurst (Brooklyn) New York. Since their humble beginnings in 1970 they have been bringing opera to their community at low cost. At the same time, they have also been allowing emerging artists the opportunity to perform and hone their craft. A quick search on Google will return hundreds of results with the resumes of performers who have performed for Regina Opera.

This summer fans of the Rockband franchise we will have the opportunity to do what we love to do and help this worthy group. We'll play the endless set list 2, all 84 songs, and as we do it we'll raise money for Regina Opera.
