More to come!

I'm sure you all know the story of the Pierson family, a tragedy that has hit most of us emotionally. If you have ever thought about hugging your children, do it now and do it often. Life is too short and one can never predict the changes that can be thrown at us.

It has been our honor to assist in the Friends of the Pierson Family Fund Raiser set for Feb. 25th at Highlander Way Middle School in Howell. Anne-Marie Scrivens, a realtor in Howell, has done an amazing amount of work in putting this event together and she has come to us to fine tune some details. We appreciate the opportunity to serve and want to send out a big thank you to the community of performers who have responded to the call and wished to be part of this. When we put this out there for help we were overwhelmed with responses. To the artists of all genres, God bless you all---we are proud to be associated and work with you. With a deadline approaching, it really came down to a first come, first serve basis. That said, let us give kudos to those who will be working with Anne-Marie on the 25th.

Let me first send a shout out to Bob Clark and Kees Oosthoek that manage possibly the greatest web site any musician could know, the Michigan Musicians Collective. If you a performer you need to be connected with these guys and get on this site. If you're not a performer, go there and check out a really cool site and you will see constant updates of Open Mics and Open Jams all over the area that you can go to and enjoy great local performers. Anyways this site, http://michigan-musicians.ning.com/ was instrumental with the numbers for response and feedback we got for this show. So kudos to Bob and Kees---you guys rock!

Our first act on the 25th will be KayLyn Pace from Dexter. Some of you may remember KayLyn from the Cystic Fibrosis show we did and she is a phenom in the making. Our main performer is the great rock/blues band 3DaddyO. Call Anne-Marie @ 517-219-3086 for more details.
