Danny Simon log time friend and roommate of Bryan Stow decided he would contact Danielle of El Palomar and do something for his friend of 25 years as he lay in a coma in Los Angeles.

The event that took place last night was way more than anyone could have asked for. Amazing people came together and donated from the heart, not only their money but for some prize possessions.

Bryan Stow Fundraiser

KDON 102.5 and The Morning Madhouse led by DJ Showbiz made the night spectacular. It was not without emotion as Showbiz asked for a moment of silence for Bryan Stow, it slammed right into the opening ceremony for the first home game of the year for the San Francisco Giants vs. LA Dodgers. The game was dedicated to Bryan Stow and a message was spoken by the teams that while this is a rivalry, we all go home to our families in the end. Stop the violence was the overarching theme.  You could have heard a pin drop in the Palomar…it was emotional.

After everyone was reminded why we were there, the festivities began as Bryan would have wanted them to. Auction items were flying quicker than Showbiz and Danielle could keep track. First to go was the replica World Series trophy for $550.

Next up was the autographed Barry Bonds bat donated by Eddie Gauer of Tanners Cove that fetched $650 in a heated live auction.

As the evening continued numerous items were Live Auctioned, Silent Auctioned and raffled off with over $20,000 being raised in total for the Bryan Stow recovery fund.

I have never seen the Palomar that packed on a Monday night, and in the back of my mind I could not get the visual of Bryan Stow’s smiling face…and the fact that he was lying in a hospital bed completely unaware as to how many people care about him, his family and his recovery. It is truly heart warming to see the community come out in full force. Thank you to some many people, you all made a difference last night.

Below was a song dedicated to Bryan Stow and was sung at the top of everyone’s lungs. Hopefully Bryan will one day realize how many people truly care.

As the holidays approach its hard to forget that 1 in 4 kids in Santa Cruz County are going hungry. Grind Out Hunger is the charity we started and we support it 100%. 2009 over 130,000 pounds of food was raised to help feed hungry children in Santa Cruz County. 2010 we want to double that to 250,000 pounds and we are 500 pounds closer.

Tarp Surfing legends Homer Henard, Omar Etcheverry, Chris Killen Seth Migdail, Dana “SkimShady” and DK pull some major Tarp Kegs to raise money/food for Grind Out Hunger special thanks to Timmy of Aloha Island Grille for the killah grinds!!! The Chesters for the video production and Black Tide for the song!

Special appearances by Luke Rockhold, Bud Freitas, Kyle Thierman, FujiTV (from Japan), Seth Migdail, Tyler Fox and many many more that made the day seriously out of control!!!

SC family member Sam Diggedy and The Morning Madhouse radio host, asked the tough questions…did Cab really only wear his shoes once like it has been rapped about by The Pack?

Friday comes and Steve Caballero’s art show was opening 5pm so we scooped up Sam Diggedy and headed over to check it out. The Abbey is a sweet little coffee shop tucked away off Highland street, the vibe seemed mellow and Steve was with family and casually chatting with people about his art.

Caballero, Sam Diggs and Zane

I was amazed at all the different mediums Cab was creating. Stencil, Pin Stripe, Brush, Oil…had no idea he was so diversified in his talents.

This was Angry Fish...original art for Rossignol Skis...my favorite!

Of course it wouldn’t be like Steve Caballero, skateboarding legend…without some skateboard art!

I haven’t even mentioned all of the bands Cab has been in, The Faction, Odd Man Out, Shovelhead, and Soda…
