    The first stop of the club tour was Atlanta, GA! Thanks to everyone in Atlanta that came out to watch the show and support the tour! The following local charities/foundations were recipients of support in Atlanta. Please see the charity website for contact information!

    The Grady Health Foundation

    The Grady Health foundations is dedicated to improving the quality of healthcare services for Metro Atlanta’s indigent, uninsured and critical care patients. This donation will benefit former Center Stage security officer Eric Parker who was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2009. His cancer returned after a short remission and he is currently in/out of Grady Medical Center. He leads a daily struggle for physical, financial and spiritual survival, all the while striving to maintain his trademark vitality in front of his family and children.

    The Georgia Veterans Day Parade

    The Georgia Veterans Day Parade partners with several Georgia Veterans organizations to assist deserving military and veterans in need. One such program is The Veterans Assistance Program ran by the Georgia Vietnam Veterans Alliance (GVVA). The donation will help deserving veterans who were down on their luck and needed immediate assistance; people like Vincent Stroute, 51. Vincent served honorably in the US Army from 1979 - 1982 and was laid of 2 weeks ago as a cook at the Cheesecake Factory. He is divorced, has custody of his 2 sons, ages 6 & 7 and needs assistance with his rent, utilities and food.

    Camp Twin Lakes

    Camp Twin Lakes is a non-profit organization that provides life-changing camp experiences for Georgia kids facing serious illnesses, disabilities, and other life challenges at three medically supportive campsites. They help children with diseases such as Cerebral Palsy learn to swim and do all kinds of camp activities with other kids just like them. The donation will directly impact the lives of several campers that would otherwise have been unable to go.

Oh Yes! Everytime I tell anyone about "The Show" I tell them how tight the band was. Totally w/The Kid all the time. How lucky to have a bank like that. Still wishing to relive "The Show",
