Why should you know about them?
These guys have a great fan base and rocking tunes! For them it is
about keeping true to the music they want to create and enjoying the
process. Their fans have told me that their shows are heaps of fun to
go to, and that they are really nice people as well! They are keen to
get real feedback about their music and want to continue to improve
their writing. They especially love looking after their fans.
One of the great things for us as the website, has been the honest and
friendly way they have given us feedback, but the thing that is gonna
blow peoples minds is that they have offered to donate all of their
winnings - $1500 USD to a childrens charity!!! They have asked us to
find a charity and go buy under privileged kids Christmas presents! So
we as the website have offered to double the winner prize, AND the
drummers boss, Craig Matthews, has also matched us and offered
$1000 USD. We are looking for a toy shop keen to match this as well
and so there is about to be one huge toy shopping trip!
We are talking to charities to see who wants to help out here, and will
be keeping everyone posted about the outcome.

The future
The immediate one is to be see their winnings distributed to the right
charity and we will have some footage made for this event! They also
are keen to tell all their fans what their votes counted for! This is a
really selfless thing to do, especially in this age of corporations using
peoples material for other gain it is nice to know we can be part of
their desire to give to the under privileged in our community!
