I just got back from dropping off the last of the donations to TASK and wanted you all to know that the grand total from this year's show was $14,000!
This is a record for the show.
Seeing people waiting in line for food and knowing that we helped with our music was an emotional moment for me.
Please send this to your band mates and fans and thank them for their talent and support.
Thank you all for your love, talent and friendship.
Happy New Year
