Hey all, I have posted on this forum for years. But I wanted to give a shoutout to my dear friend James. He's been massive fan since the 90s and has been singing in The Pearl Jam Experience, a Melbourne PJ tribute band for 16 years. 
After learning about EB though Eddie's advocacy James and his band have been doing what he can to support the cause, rasing awareness and donating profits from some shows. On Sunday just gone in Melbourne his band hosted a their biggest fundraiser for EBRP Australia at the Prince Bandroom. They were able to raise over $7k for EB. Some of the EBRP and EBRPA team where there including Jonathan Brown (Browny) who is an ambassador and former AFL player. James relished the opportunity to embarrass Browny by calling him on stage to sing. It was the most incredible night and a great way to celebrate with Pearl Jam fans from around country and world who were in town for PJ.
I just wanted to let you know about this legend of a man, he has the kindest heart of everyone I've ever met, I'm proud to have him as a friend. If by chance this was to get to the band, I'd love if you could give James and the band a shoutout for what they achieved.
I was lucky enough to create the design for the fundraiser event and t-shirt featuring a Dark Matter inspired butterfly. We have sent a both Eddie and Jill via Michael Hund at EBRP. I hope like them xoxo
Regards
Libby
