I just want to really thank everyone for their support and I have a feeling that tomorrow is going to be a great success! I am really proud to be a part of a music community that cares about helping people and each other!
We'll be there around 11:00 am tomorrow (Homer's Army & my clan). I'm pretty sure all the bands got their load in plans, but if you need anything let me know, either pm me here or at tbaker@presentus.net.

Bless ya'll and See Ya Tomorrow!!!

That was awesome!!! I was soooo glad to be a part of the event - Thanks Trace for having us!!!!

We were the 1st band, and we stuck around to hear some great (to say the least) tunes from CuCuPlex and Sidestep, but we really HAD to leave early. I personally hope that a lot more people showed up for the cause. It wasn't a bad turn out, but then again, I am not sure how many people were there that actually paid to be there or how many were band members that didn't have to pay to get in!!

Also, BIG BIG APPLAUSE for John "Homerski" who did one hell of a job setting everything up for us today and being the "Stage Manager"!!

And (Dan - can ya help me out here!!) also a big thanks to all the sound and lights folks - I know I got your names, but I am bad at remembering names- sorry guys!!!!

Trace, you did a great job and I really hope it all went the way you envisioned!!

I had the chance to meet many of us "Rockpagers" this afternoon - which was really awesome, and I met a few people that I didn't know about before, but will be keeping an eye on from here on out!!!!

Also, a very very very very special thanks to Jae!!! He is Beyond Reason's new bass player. He didn't get more than about 10 hours notice and, as far as I am concerned, he kicked some serious booty for us today!! He will now be our (new) permanent Bassist - and we are all excited to have him aboard - (cant wait for the initiation!!) . Most of you know Jae as DMFJ03!! Welcome to our nightmare brother!!!!

Anyway, I've been drinking for tooooo many hours - I must go make food - for those that were there, I'm sure you had a good time, for those that couldn't make it, well, you really missed out!!

Great job Trace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After posting this, we ended up not being able to be there anyways. I hope all went well and am still looking forward to meeting everyone someday! Cheers!

I just wanted to reiterate everything Urbs said..... AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME. I am sorry I didn't get a chance to stick around for more but the wife had work and it's old Dad's job to take the kiddies to indoor soccer and all of that good stuff so I had to bug out early.

Everyone there did a fantastic job of pulling together, Trace and JP for getting everything organized, John for bringing in the troops for the day to keep the sound and lights going... Keith, great job with the mix... Thanks!!

Though I didn't get to see anyone after SideStep, I gotta say, at this point I'm coo coo for CuCuPlex

Seriously... you guys are flucking Fantastic!

And the boys from SideStep continue to kick asssssssssss!!!! I'm telling you what... If John can figure out how to get the rest of his appendages to into the mix, live that is, you'll all be in trouble. Great Job guys.... Train Rocked!!!!

And thanks to the Deathmaster... our newest addition... thanks man!! It's hard when you get less than a days notice about a job... the chords and music are nothin... most musicians can jump in and hang on, but to jump into the mix cold and gel like that is awesome!!!

Thanks all! Hey Trace... looking forward to this summer!!

Yesterday was awesome: Enough said.

I'd like to thank Beyond Reason (Dan, Tom, and Chris) for giving me the chance to play yesterday. Things weren't supposed to happen the way they did, but I don't think I'd of had it any other way. Great job yesterday, guys, I enjoyed it.

Geez, what a great time! I loved the response from the crowd, the sound was great, the bands were awesome (thank God we didn't follow Homer's Army) and everything went off without a hitch, mostly. My voice did one of those "crack without warning" things, and I didn't turn my amp up loud enough, but hey, that's me. You'd think after a couple decades I wouldn't get all amped up and make mistakes, but I guess a roomful of musicians will make you jittery.
Trace, you get a special "I kick ass" pin for your angel wings, girl. Thanks for coming up with a situation where everybody wins. SideStep would play gigs like that all the time, if you're involved.
Thanks again, everyone... we have a music scene like no other, and I say that with great pride that I am a small part of it.----->JMS
