sarcasm yes.

I know he recorded Dirty Money on Wed (yesterday), so that's awesome. But I think only D$ and VSjr have recorded w/him since the accident.

I know the bands have been helping him w/the physical stuff like setting up mics and etc.

And I personally want to thank those two bands for recording w/him right now. It is REALLY important for Rob to stay busy since he is literally trapped at home and has been ordered by his doctor not to not walk for at least month.

I can't imagine how boring and frustrating his situation is sometimes. So this is also a big part of his healing process.

Thanks guys!

Another Benefit Show for Rob:

Salutations friends! The Righteous Kind will be rocking Brophy’s Irish Pub, downtown G’ville, next Friday night September 5. The show will be unusually groovy because it’s all Righteous Kind, all night. We will be doing three sets of music starting at about 10:00 PM and going to about 1:30 AM. Come early, come late, but catch a wave of righteous tunes.

And this will be a night with a righteous cause, as well. The show is a benefit for Gainesville music icon Rob McGregor, who was injured in an auto accident last month. You may know Rob from his hard rock band Grain, or as the front man of the classic country act The Damn Wrights, or through his recording studio Goldentone, "home of the Gainesville sound." Rob is a Gainesville treasure. He has given so much to this community, but he needs the community’s help now. So we’re going to donate all the dollars taken at the door to Rob.

Come rocking for the cause, baby, and have an uber groovy time as well!

What: Benefit musical show for Rob McGregor.
When: Friday, September 5, starting at 10:00 PM.
Where: Brophy’s Irish Pub. 60 SW 2nd Street, Downtown. It’s located on the ground floor of the new city parking garage building.

With love,

Charles Ray
