This is such a commendable effort, you are some amazing cool people. Yet another example of how Pearl Jam inspires change for good.

Just got home from the San Diego gig...
HOLY SHIT!!!
FTM rocked the house - played a TON of killer UFO tunes, and brought out a special guest at the end of the show...
ACE MUTHAFUCKIN FREHLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW
Black Diamond with the band and it rocked!!!!
Mike was literally 3 feet away all night, Paul signed my Klausen poster, got 2 "Michael McCready FTM" pics and the Casbah might be the single greatest place to see a live band...
Arrogant Bastard on tap (as well as Stone IPA) didn't hurt the cause either
The Sabbath chick band rocked balls too...
What a great night...
If you can, get to a FTM show immediately - Mike so enjoyed it, Tim, Gary and Paul certainly are in top form...
WOW - amnesia couldn't make me ever forget what I witnessed tonight...
Cool thing - Ace played with the boys @ the Borgata in '05 - and I happened to be there. The fact he did Black Diamond tonite was incredible...Not sure, but it might be the only 2 times Ace and Mike jammed together - can't believe I was in attendance at both!!! As a KISS fan also, doesn't really get much better than this!!!
Feeling fortunate and grateful & the ears are ringing like a bitch
