Relay For Life - 2010

Not too many shows that we have done have the emotional impact of this important benefit for cancer research on Saturday, August 7, 2010 in Vallejo, CA. Raising over $264,000 and creating awareness, the event was a phenomenal success!

Our band played the last two hours of the event as well as for the ceremony at the end. As we performed our original song, "Morning Angels" and drummer, Ram Hatley and I sang "Let go of the fear", we looked over to the stadium bleachers and saw "HOPE" spelled out in candlelight. We had one of those amazing moments that made us feel like we were being put to some good use. Ten minutes later the same bleachers spelled out "CURE" magically as the ceremony was under way. As we were leaving by way of golf cart, a group of people were singing in unison as I was barely able to make out their silhouettes.

Many participants gave freely of their energies to support this worthy cause and made this two day Relay For Life event spectacular. It was truly an honor to be a part of it.

Thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Sparks, Keith, Jeremy as well as all event crew for taking care of us.

Glen Cove Marina 2010

What an amazing Marina adventure! Our band barely traveled a few miles to be transported into an island-esq oasis full of beauty and good times. One band after another made their way onto white, canopy-covered stage with surrounded by soft, feathery trees swaying almost in time to the music around them.

This year, there were a lot of great vendor booths to visit which made for an exciting experience for those in search of treasures.

Though we started slight later than was scheduled (Due to the sheer volume of musical acts), we took to the stage with gusto right as the weather cooled to perfection.

Mama Bear "Diana Wallis" joined us in a couple of tunes. Check it out!

Our very enthusiastic audience gave stellar performances themselves with applause and dancing (we finally have the dance video we always wanted - click here). Thank you, thank you everyone and especially to the Glen Cove Marina folks and Richard Freedman at The Vallejo Times Herald for another great festival!
