The Orlando Weekly’s Best of 2009

Last night Christy and I went to Club Firestone for the Orlando Weekly’s ‘Best of Orlando 2009’ shin-dig. It was a good time, made even better by the free beer and food. While being pressed up against the bar in the back I was able to snap a couple pictures of a few of the winners names as they flashed up on the wall.

First I’d like to give it up to a talented musician here in Orlando, ‘Best Folk Artist’, Matt Butcher. This guy is a great songwriter and someone I truly respect. I feel honored just being in the same category as him.

Rock for Hunger won 2nd place for ‘Best Local Charity Group’ (I think they should have gotten 1st Place, but I am also extremely bias). You have never taken the chance to serve with Rock for Hunger on Monday nights where they feed the homeless by Lake Eola you should. Its a great experience and it truly does help bring a sense of community to people that are often not looked at as people.

And finally, as Christy was telling me “…there it is, take a picture!” I was shoveling a chicken wing into my face and washing it down with some free suds, I frantically reached for my iPhone and snapped away. Thanks again to everyone that voted me ‘Best Indie Act’. It really does mean a lot and gets me excited to drop my new record. Thanks for recharging the batteries!
