Guys - wish me and my band, The Toys, luck tomorrow in FORTUNE Magazine's Battle of the Corporate Bands. We're playing tomorrow afternoon at 1pm in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame here in Cleveland for a 30 minute set, and then again in the evening for the judged set.

You can follow the info on our site:

www.facebook.com/thetoysband

Didn't get to bring out my Showman or Bandmaster, but will be playing through one of their Twin Reverbs; our band also just got a tour of Dr. Z's amp shop, which was amazing. Hand built, USA parts (Schumacher, Heyboer & Triad transformers to name a few).

We're looking forward to tomorrow night!

Jeff Carlisi - 38 Special
Peter Stroud - Sheryl Crow, co-founder 65 Amps
Liberty Devito - Billy Joel drummer
Jeff Adams - bass player for Mickey Thomas' Starship.

Chuck played and sang his $@! off. Truly amazing musician. Peter is also no slouch on guitar!
