SUMMARY:WOUNDED WARRIOR EVENT AT DURTY NELLIES PALATINE
DESCRIPTION:When I conceived of this event back in January, I had grea
 t hopes that it would be a success. In less than 6 months, it has alre
 ady exceeded my expectations. That’s because so many others like mys
 elf have a burning desire to honor and support our wounded warriors bu
 t had no vehicle to show that support. Wounded Warrior Rockfest gives 
 everyone an opportunity to do just that.Wounded Warrior Rockfest will 
 be a benefit concert to be held at Durty Nellies in Palatine IL on Mem
 orial Day (Monday, May 30th). The event will consist of two shows, 2-5
 :30pm and 6-10pm, and will feature 9 bands. Tickets for the 1st show a
 re $8 in advance, $10 at the door. Tickets for the 2nd show are $12.50
  in advance, $15 at the door. (buy tickets at www.woundedwarriorrockfe
 st.com/tix)The money raised will go to Wounded Warrior Project which h
 as programs to help the wounded warriors (go to www.woundedwarriorproj
 ect.org).We have some amazing things happening at the event. The Marin
 e Corps Color Guard will start the event at 2pm with the presentation 
 of the Colors. Immediately following, professional vocalist Timothy Fi
 lliman will lead us in the National Anthem. US Congressman Robert Dold
  will then share some thoughts and lead us in honoring our fallen sold
 iers with a moment of silence. US Congressman Joe Walsh will join us a
 t 3:30pm and share some words of support for our wounded warriors, as 
 will Palatine Mayor Jim Schwantz.I addition, we have over $2000 worth 
 on raffle prizes, video shout outs shown through the event, profession
 al video film crew shooting a concert DVD and a great emcee, Madeline 
 Maser.Now, I know most people already have plans for Memorial Day and 
 will be unable to attend Wounded Warrior Rockfest. If that’s the cas
 e, I ask if you would do 2 things:First, please take a moment (or long
 er) to honor our fallen soldiers. They made the ultimate sacrifice so 
 that we may be free (It IS Memorial Day, after all).Second, consider p
 urchasing a ticket for Wounded Warrior Rockfest as a donation. It’s 
 only $8, less than a bottle of wine or a six pack of beer! Please visi
 t www.woundedwarriorrockfest.com/tix.Lastly, I will be in studio for a
 n interview with Greg Jarrett of WGN 720AM (Chicago) on Monday morning
  at 8am. If you’re in Chicago, tune in.Thanks for your support.\n\nF
