Tom McAmis,
founder and drummer extraordinaire of BandFromUNCLE - not
to mention by far the healthiest (of the guys anyway ...),
suffered a heart attack at a gig in
March 2007. Being the concerned and conscientious soul
that he is, he actually waited until the break between the 2nd
& 3rd sets so as to cause as little disruption and
disappointment as possible. He subsequently underwent
quadruple bypass surgery on March 13th and has made a good
recovery. We were inundated by requests other musicians and
friends to participate in some kind of tribute /
benefit for him to help with medical bills and other costs. So Saturday
May 5th 2007 we did such a thing at
Cuttin’ Loose in Burleson. This page is but a
tiny thank you to everyone who gave - time, money, gifts to
auction, food to sell - whatever ....
Almost a year
after the event, it was just pointed out to me that we didn't
thank Tom's stepson BJ for
sitting in on drums for the man ...... Just goes to show
you shouldn't hire a Brit to promote a Texas rock band !!
