Wilmington’s music scene showed its heart this weekend as OC3ANS took the stage at Bowstring, raising funds and support for Mark Romeo ahead of his surgery. The benefit buzz is strong, and another event may be on the horizon—but in the meantime, you can lend a hand directly through Venmo at @Mark-Romeo-13.
