What a great night the Hootenanny was! Anybody that has never met these guys I urge to show up at their next appearance. They are some of the nicest guys you will ever meet. Very personable and seemed eager to meet everyone they could.

We talked to Joe for a while about his Joe stunts and some of them that we have done and filmed (Jager Snort, Tequila Stuntman, Cinnamon Challenge, Eat a raw onion, and Vodka Pickles.)

Didn't get to talk to Free Beer much, but we did manage to get our tickets signed and snag a few pictures with them.

Hot Wings was very pleasant to talk to as well, and was able to get a quick photo with him.

But without a doubt the one that was the most of a pleasure to meet was Eric Zane. One of the nicest and most sincere people I have ever met. We talked about when I was on Dumber than Zane against him, my Cat footwear, got lots of pictures. But the greatest thing of all was this. My mother is a big fan of the show as well, but has gone through breast cancer for the past 2 and a half years. The chemotherapy zapped her immune system so bad that she cannot be in a crowd for a while until it builds back up, and her energy level would not have allowed her to stay long even if she could have. Zane called my mom from my friends cell phone and was going to speak with her for a second, she was already asleep. But she had the nicest voice mail message from him waiting for her when she woke up. It absolutely made her night! Maybe I'm over-thinking it, but the fact that during all that in the Hootenanny he was willing to take a few minutes to do that was amazing.

All in all, it was a great evening. The guys seemed to want to talk to everyone not because they HAD to, but because they WANTED to and were truly appreciative of all their listeners.
