I'm so excited for this! I am doing the drive down from up north to witness this fantastic-sounding show!! What a good cause to get involved with Chris!
Hope more of you drag your ass out for Closer To The Heart! Give those little budding musicians the chance they deserve!

Great show Chris!! What a fun night!
Although, my favorite of the evening was the Golden Dogs' fantastic rendition of Money City Maniacs on the ukulele! That was hilarity!
I hope it was a successful/enjoyable night for all involved!
