Jay Su + AWG Fundraiser
August 16 2009
Hey sportsfans!
So last night we played for a very special occasion. We played at a celebration of life for Jay Su. Although I've only had the chance to meet Jay a couple if times, it was enough to get a feeling of the rad person he was. Even more saddening was the ripple of emotion seen through my circle of friends... who had the privilege to know Jay at a closer level. This was also an awareness of the Drew families loss... Jay Drew, who also died in a tragic car accident.
AND furthermore, on a happy note... to raise some money for the average white guys football team! GO AWG!
I was definitely touched at the moment when everyone came together to remember Jay as we played one of our more depressing songs "Departed" This song is not one that I enjoy to play very often just because of its sad message behind it. BUT it this situation is seemed to fit just right. We would like to send out a huge thank you to Rich Norman and everyone else who help setup the stage. Your support means the world! Another huge thanks to Wayne for doing the sound, and rockin' those Bob Marley covers. Very appropriate! Apparently Beer pong isn't my sport either, I'll just stick to the sidelines as I was a DD last night. The whole event was a "hand your keys over" which means there was ZERO drinking and driving to be taken place.
Remember, many people have suffered a tragic loss to the hands of drinking and driving. Its NOT something to be taken lightly. I know if anything were to happen to a close friend of mine due to a stupid mistake... I would be lost. So just remember that it can happen to you the next time you bring the keys with you, and do the right thing.
Check out some of our photo's!
love and respect
