Bands Battling Autism

I think I'm a good guy. Basically, a good guy. I don't ask for help very often. Maybe if I've fallen, or if my back hurts, or if I need someone to make me cookies, but rarely.

Right now, I'm asking for your help.

For the second year, I'm involved in an event called Bands Battling Autism. It's simple, it's a day of music, and all of the proceeds benefit a charity called Autism Speaks. Every dollar of the ticket goes to Autism Speaks. I don't need to preach about it being a good cause, you know it's a good cause.

I'm personally responsible for making sure 200 people buy tickets to this. I'll be there. We'll have fun. We'll hear good music. We'll go home feeling good about ourselves. Come hang out with me. Only $20.

The event is May 17th, from 2pm until 6pm. It will be (mostly) acoustic, so it'll be a way to see some of these bands in a different light.

You can buy tickets here:

Remember, 200. All on me. Make it happen. Be sure to send me an email at spike@94wysp.com to let me know if you've bought a ticket so I can keep track.

I'm proud of the lineup this year.

So far we have:

Tommy Conwell

Fosterchild

The Band Formerly Known As Blue Collar

Jamie Stem (Of Sinch)

Brian Bortnick

Kick The Dog

Plutonics

The Kevin Monco Band

And a bunch of kids who played killer Classic Rock songs last year. They were like 16 and they tried Freebird. God bless them.
