"Bro-Am" is the buzzword in town, so I thought I'd devote an entire post to the event, reliving some moments from last year's event, and looking forward to the one that's gonna take place this weekend. First, some updates about this year's. A fellow fan, Holly Howard, was at the bro-am fundraising auction the other night, and she said she had a great time. The highest bidder gave away around $2200. yep. Here's a picture she snapped, of Jon playing "Revenge" for the attendees:
Also, Alicia left a comment on the previous post saying that Jamie Tworkowski of TWLOHA will be at the Bro-Am. Great guy. Be sure to check out the TWLOHA booth there and get to know their story, if you're going. An amazing organization serving people in need, giving hope to youth.
Our blogger friend Tim Rogers at Broken Masterpieces wrote a report about his experience at last year's Bro-Am. In the build-up to this year's, that'd be a great read, if you haven't read it already. Check it out.
Now for a few video flashbacks to last year's Bro-Am. A clip of Tristan Prettyman, a performer at the event, playing "The Story":
I'm going! I'm so excited! I'm driving to California tomarrow after work! I can't wait!!!
I heard a little rumor that Jason Mraz isn't going to play. Anyone know if that is true? I'm going either way, but having Mraz play would make it just that much cooler.
great updates Phil!! the pics were very nice!! but i so wished that i could go to the bro-am this year!! but i can't :( oh well there is always a next year!!
Great pictures Phil! Thanks for posting them. I wish I could go too, but I can't. But, I'm definetely not missing next year's Bro-am. To anyone that's going have lots of fun and thank you for supporting the guys in this. All of u ROCK!!! GOD BLESS YOU...
OMG!!! for once we got to see alittle of Tim's son! CUTE! and i love Jon's jeans, those are funny!!! well it looked like ALOT of fun!!! i wish i could have been there!!! ~lydia
tim looks like one of those people in Us magazine *stars, their just like you* they take walks with their kids! lol! i can't beleive that teh contest was cancelled! bummer! well hope all goes well next year!
"sighs" well, i can't go to the bro-am, my mom doesn't want to drive 6 hours to another town, much-less another state! o-well, i'll get there eventually. to all of those more fortunate than me have a good time! and i really want another sf podcast so i can see how the bro-am went!
^well, if we could be people "just going off and posting pics of their kids w/o asking them first", we wouldn't be running this blog on their homepage. :) if it's on their homepage, i think you can safely assume they've got it covered and they're cool with it. but glad you asked, cause I'm sure there are more people out there wondering about the same thing.
Wow! I loved the pics. I'm living up in Canada so it's kinda hard to make the trip down to Bro-Am.
Whoever is going should LOTS of pictures and videos so that the unfortunate ones can relive the event.
Have fun! :)
