Giving Thanks - Thanksgiving

Just want to take a few moments and simply give thanks to our fans and friends who have been a huge impact on our lives and careers. We are thankful for our families, without which we could not do what we do.  Just remember there are people in the USA (and other countries) right now that don't even have the basic human needs like food, clothing, and shelter. I encourage you to donate anything, even $1 to a charity, it will make you feel great! IT REALLY WILL!
:)
"In ordinary life we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we give, and that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich."
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Cheers and Happy Thanksgiving!

Friends


Many of you might not know....Our friend and previous drummer Matt Thrift passed away on Feb. 12th 2011, from an unimaginable and un-expected heart attack at age 31.  The RadioBuzzD interview on the "Media" page, is the last interview and performance we had with him.  His kind spirit and helpful attitude was something that was a mark of his humble personality that will forever be remembered!!
