Hello all you Big Love Bussin' Daddios!

We don't have much for the travel blog this week, so we'll keep it short.   One thing we really need to recognize is the amount of effort our "Love Bussers" put into the Toys-For-Tots Drive in Raleigh on Thursday night.    Thank you so much to Stacy Jones, Jenny Viars, Tori Steinberg, and Kevin and Jennifer Swenk for stepping up and helping us round up over 300 toys and $300 in cash donations.   Below are some pictures of the Marines that were at the show to help out.   We have done more charity work this holiday season than ever before and it has just made us want to do more and more.   It is true what they say: you get the most by giving.  Nursing home shows, food drives, and toy drives are just the beginning for us.   We have had so much fun with every event, and have met great people along the way.   Hopefully we will be able to double or triple our efforts in 2012.

Want to join us in Florida for a great New Years Eve Festival? Don't forget to use the promo code BIGDL11 (case sensitive)   Bond-fire music festival

Remember that we have an online sale of 20% off through our new online store!  Order by tomorrow, Thursday the 15th, to get by Christmas.

And please help us out by voting for Big Daddy Love on these end of the year polls:
WNCW Top 100 Albums of the Year
Homegrown Music Networks best album of the year. 

Tori, Jenny, and Stacy!

One last thing that I want to mention is that we were FINALLY able to get Mr. Cass Copsey onstage with his trumpet.  We've always heard that he was a great player, but in the two years of traveling with him we had never heard him play much.  And wow, he's fantastic.   

Here is the audio of the entire show that you can download for FREE!  Enjoy!

Thanks everyone! Until next time,
