Here's a message sent to us on our MySpace page...

I get off work at 9 pm and I...

Our meal tonight consisted of
Fish taco = pei Wei wonton
Salsa = marinara sauce
Spicy salsa = marinara with Tabasco
Rice = couscous
Ranch dressing = mayonnaise
The beans, water, beer and chips were all as they should have been.
We can't thank these people enough!
So I’m sure by now you have heard the horrible tale about how all of our guitars were stolen 2 days ago. Well since then, we set up a donation page on our website and we are blown away by the response and generosity of our fans and friends.
I just wanted to recognize these people for donating and helping us get back on our feet:
Matthew Potter
Hollie Pocsai
Shelby Miller
Judi Roth
