    Awesome. I'm happy to see this set up! Mark and McFadden's were good to us Faithfull 4 years ago with the Spectrum shows. Just make sure they don't have a DJ playing this time when trying to do the auctions LOL...

    Yep and Yep!! That's me and both nights.

    I told him I haven't heard or seen the guys from 5 Vs 1 in awhile but can get in touch with them if need be...they played my wedding in 2003....they rocked the house for the band's management and others before a show one time in Bully's which is now gone. Those guys are a great group and great fans...
