Sticking to their word, Nick and Aaron were in this week and didn't disappoint. They even brought us some new friends to play with! Shelby Pollard who is a fantastic blues musician as well as Bobbi and Eric from Chicago HOPES. Besides a fabulous party, it was also a family affair!
Now the reason we had all these beautiful people in is simple: Benefit Show. Chicago HOPES is an organization that helps homeless children in Chicago. The show The Fireship and Shelby are playing helps tutoring programs.
Really cool part: philanthropy (not to be confused with THIS) Helping out people is way-cool and not done as frequently as it should be. Of course there are some perks besides feeling good: there's a gnarly raffling that will be happening as well as your chance to eat dinner with the bands (guaranteed if you purchase the VIP tickets. you also get a sweet gift bag with a candle made from crayons!)
