And then on the 17th come out and party with us and the Cherry People guaranteed to be an  experience not soon to be forgotten...                                           Second Helping.

Sincerely, the Second Helping Band

Please keep his family in your prayers for their untimely loss. Tony we will miss you, but we also know that you will be in our hearts every time we take the stage. We have lost a great talent, a great songwriter, and a southern gentlemen. Heaven has gained a new lead guitar player in Rockn' Roll Heaven. Fly on Freebird you are free at last.
