THANK YOU! Thanks with all our hearts to everyone who came out last night for Andy! You are the best friends and greatest families anyone could ever want! We think we rocked The Pony on a School/Work night- what do you think!!

THANKS to the guys at Jersey Mike's of Howell for the great food (especially Kyle for the delivery and donation!), Mike Corona of Ocean County Music in Point Pleasant Beach for the guitar package that made it so much easier to sell raffle tickets! (won by one of Andy's best friends- David Green- he was on a winning streak last night- hope it holds for him at Wall Stadium!), Miranda Layton for making 1200, actually 1300, Band Pins (we know you now have a carpal tunnel injury and no- we do not offer disability insurance!), Vinnie & Maribeth Corona-Evans for running the food table (thanks Vinnie also for the awesome artwork!), Melissa for tirelessly selling those raffle tickets, Lynda & Tim Murphy for the chip bar that never ended, Caroline, Kyle and all the people at The Stone Pony who were so great to us, Amy & Brett for manning the food table for us, Holly (I don't know how you did it!) and Dino (the greatest radio voice and the firmest handshake on the planet) at THE RAT (WRAT Radio) for coming out and promoting us on the best radio station in NJ and so many other people who made this thing happen- please forgive us if we have not mentioned you- we are have asleep and half hard of hearing (thank you ONE FALSE MOVE- you guys rocked!) which makes it even harder for us to think than it usually is (and it is usually pretty hard!).

A HUGE THANKS to our wonderful, talented musicians who donated their time and talent! STATUS-GREEN - one of the most loved bands at the Jersey shore- came out on a Sunday night at 10 PM to play for us and we love them! Thanks guys for the awesome music - everyone has GOT to get their CD- it will never leave your CD player!- thanks for signing the winning guitar and Lou- thanks for everything- without you signing on to this, it would have never gotten off the ground! We know you promoted this thing all over myspace! You guys are the nicest rock stars in the world! ONE FALSE MOVE - you guys played your hearts out and everyone loved it! Their new CD makes our cars shake with the volume on the lowest setting (you have to have it!)- thank you guys- you rock! THE BACKBEAT - the music that got everybody dancing and the nicest guys in the world- they even donated the money from the sales of their promo gift t-shirts and hats to us! You guys are awesome and everyone LOVES your sound! S. PRESTON - the funky music everybody loved! You guys can be counted on for anything and are always there for us (Ed thanks for rocking the Stone Pony- not the My Little Pony and we hope you like your haircut!), SMOKING ACES- they got everybody on their feet and played their hearts out! They look tough but are the sweetest guys in the world (yes, Chris's mom thinks you are the sexiest she has ever seen!). Thanks Marie for making this happen (and for all your donations and promotions- thank you!). DAYDREAMING THE FIRES for getting us started with their awesome sound and getting there for load in within 2 minutes (when we messed up the time- you guys are the best!). They got us started and got everything moving with their great music! You guys rock! The musicians all donated their time and talent and we love them! PLEASE come out and support their shows throughout the year!!

ANDY was there all night and he looks great! He stood for all of Status Green. He is still standing after months of chemo! He is unstoppable! Today (we write this on Monday morning 9/10) he goes back on chemo for another week. He is beating stage IV cancer. He is a miracle! We hope you and Vanessa had a great night (that Billy Joel song was another little miracle)!

If Andy can beat stage IV cancer what can we all do? What should we all be doing? What would we do if we knew we could not fail (we are getting a little corny here we know- but sometimes moments of great insight come with great hangovers). There were so many little miracles along the way to last night and they just keep coming.

Maybe whatever we really believe we can do- we really can do- maybe we all have a little miracle in us! Thank you EVERYONE!
