MS sucks. It really does. I've been unfortunate enough to know several good friends that have suffered from this terrible disease, and it is life changing for all of them.
Our first gig at the Best Place was in May 2010. We were introduced to the fine people there by our friend Rob Wood who used to do some real estate business with the Best Place's manager Scotty. Scotty had to quit the real estate business because of his MS, and had recently starting manging the Best Place due to this. Scott is the nicest, warmest and friendliest person you'd ever want to meet, and he instantly asked us if we'd be interested in playing at their fine establishment sometime. We played there about a month later. That was show #4 for us. We had an awesome time, but little did we know that was the first step on a long upward road for us and for the Best Place.
We are now playing show #44 tomorrow - once again at the Best Place. For the 2nd time, we're helping Scotty out with his MS Society benefit, trying to raise a shitload of money to go towards MS research.
Please, think about stopping in and joining us tomorrow night for the Best Place's 2nd annual MS Society Benefit, even if it's just for a few minutes, to chip in for a great cause at the coolest bar in Milwaukee.
You'll be glad you did.
Thanks,
The Boys in Bockenplautz
