    We wanted to thank all the great new friends we met Wednesday night at the show, and at the pre-party.

    What an indescribable night! We had a great pre-funk at The Local, we won an auction for an incredible signed PJ poster for our collection that benefits charity, and best of all we had our minds blown all the way back across the Pacific Ocean by Ed.

    Much aloha to Denise and Paul at the Local fundraiser. You made a couple of rookie fans who came all the way from Hawaii feel so stoked.

    Cheers to Laur & Hooper for hooking up with us in SD from Seattle U Rock!

    i also have 2 nyc night 1 tickets coming my way. not 100% sure if that plan comes through. but i think they will. might also do those as charity. they are not 10club tickets though. think they are in the 308 section.

    i wouldn't know how to auction the 1 10club ticket. haven't done ebay for. which i'm kinda against. if somebody could help out on auctioning the one ticket, that would be sweet! the charity that will take the money, i would want ideas first.

    I'll be busy at work at my restaurant all this weekend but I have free time on Tuesday and Wednesday to make some calls, I will probably just go down to the area and talk to the restaurants in person. From my own experience as a restaurant manager, a restaurant can be more accommodating in a person to person meeting. I also know some local music talent that could play, if the place doesn't already have some groovin' sounds kickin' already.

    Yo JaySwan! Any word on a pre-party? I will try to help you out if I can. I'm in Bradenton. Let get something going!

    Andrerychuk's Grille is across the street from the forum. 813-272-1430. I PM'd JaySwan as it sounded like he was going to organize, but no response. I am in Bradenton and able to help out the day of the show. Maybe more but time is limited with work and kids. I'll be up there around lunch time with at least four others. I'll work on getting some items to donate as well. Thanks Stoneg! Let's get this shit together.

    So has anybody organizing the pre-parties thought about making a myspace group for each show? I know this was done in 06 and it was nice to put names to faces beforehand. It was a good place to ask questions about each pre-party too.....

    I was planning on donating a few DVD boots from PJ to the Tampa fundraiser for Jeff's org- I have a pretty decent collection, but I don't want to step on your toes. I see that you are putting up a few VHS boots. Let me know what you think.

    Well I was going to live auction the ames book and red devil poster and I was going to use my VHS boots, old tour shirts, ect as raffle items.

    I was going to make myself a copy of my VHS boots so I still have them for my collection but was going to give my originals to donate. If you can do the same that would be awesome...well not give originals but make copies or something, ya know? It's totally your call...

    I am tryin to raise as much money as I can and everyones' help is accepted...
    Sounds good. What I'll probably do is copy a couple from each year- the best ones and donate those. I'll let you know when they are complete. I'm having computer problems at home- damn virus, but hopefully it will be cleared up soon, once it is, I'll get to work on the boots.
