Hey Guys, Dawn here...
What a cool night this was! We tried as hard as we could to hint that something was going to happen at the concert that you would not want to miss, but we never knew when Eimi might be listening and we didn't want to tip her off! Drue had been planning this for months. He told the staff back at Thanksgiving to make sure we kept Jan 26th clear so we could all be there. It was really cool for us because, although we as a staff don't get a chance to hang out all together very often, we're all really close. We felt really honored that he wanted to share this moment with us, and with the listeners too! As for the wedding, not sure about the date yet but word around the office is that they'll prolly be getting married in California...
As far as the concert itself, well it rocked, of course! Patrick Ryan Clark started us off with an acoustic set, Eimi followed and of course, the BIG moment happened right after her set. Drue had been emceeing up to that point, but for SOME reason, he didn't feel that he would be available to host the rest of the show so Chris and I took over to introduce Rhythm, who is one of my favorite bands to see live! Those guys have so much class! Email and Adrian introduced our Canadian friends, Manic Drive, as they headlined the night with an amazingly tight set. They just keep getting better and better every time I see them.
It's been a long time since we've done a benefit show but this definitely whetted our appetite to do more. We know we'll be doing alot more community type events, like the Plano Super Bowl on Feb 16th. At the risk of sounding girly-girl, I'm going to try not to break a nail as I bowl for the first time in about 10 years! Pray for me... :))
We really enjoyed hanging out with you guys on Saturday night. It was a really special night for all of us. The only downside is that we're not sure we can top Drue's proposal at the next show. Adrian may not know it yet, but he might be tapped to propose to his girlfriend that night...we haven't decided for sure yet. Is Email dating anybody...:) Wait! Wouldn't it be cool if Drue surprised everybody again and he and Eimi actually got married at one of the events?!
Thanks to all that were there and we hope to see those who couldn't make it next time!
Bless Ya!
