Good News Clinics hoped to net about $50,000 Thursday night from its main fundraiser, an annual dinner featuring music, recognitions and tributes to the organization’s charitable work. But it was particularly about the music, with Good News physicians performing a variety of songs as “Docs That Rock” — from original compositions to Hank Williams Sr. classics. Doctors strummed guitars, yodeled and performed duets.
