Team Joey Benefit at Sweeney's January 25, 2015
Thank you everyone for your support!
A Facebook message from Joey's Uncle Gary
I can't tell you all enough how important it is to surround yourself with good people. To my band mates, my friends, my family, the staff at Sweeneys and the bands Lecompt,The Big Jangle and YBOF. Thank you all so much for your support. All of the time you all spent making this thing happen. Even if it was sharing a FB post, it helped. I want to let you all know what we accomplished together yesterday. We raised 17,000$ for my nephew and his family!!!! You are all saints for your help. The musicians that decided to donate their time, I can't thank you enough. Donald Jenkins Wesley Werner Brian Kelly Chip Keagy Michael Fallis Toby Vattilano Joseph DiRocco Brad Heimbach Ray Palmer Derek Petaccio And all of the others that I'm not friends with on here or don't have a facebook you guys are awesome!!!! Thank you to Christian Sweeney for allowing us to bring this together and for doing all of the little extra things that most bar managers/owners would not have done. To Kiley Smith, you're a rock!!! You've spent the better part of the last 3 weeks getting this thing together. Every waking minute making sure that it went smooth. It went just as you expected it to...PERFECTLY!!!! You're amazing!! And to all of the fans and friends of the band. You guys always continue to support this band thru everything. To come and donate your money to help out Jennifer and Joey and their beautiful son thru this thing is truly amazing. One last thing, Billy Stott and Doreen Gessner Stott. You two have supported everything that I do. From music and managing this crazy band to asking me to fix your home when it falls apart to showing my family that you really care about me as a person. Your donations to this tragedy have been above and beyond what we could ever ask of you. Thank you so much!!! So thank all of you who came out and helped little Joey in the "you can't C me" event that took place yesterday. I love you all, and I am so glad that I've surrounded myself with great people like all of you!!! |
