Jeremy
Wainland Fund Benefit Shows
Phantasy Tour has teamed up with The Disco Biscuits and South Florida Jams to help raise awareness for the upcoming Jeremy Wainland benefit concerts and to give those people who may not be able to attend the opportunity to help this great cause. In the words of The Disco Biscuits Jeremy Wainland was the definition of a Disco Biscuits fan. After a show, Jeremy could be found in some hotel room, arguing until dawn about how tonight's version of a particular song either blew away or couldn't hold a candle to a far superior version the band had played somewhere in the middle of the country two years ago. But that's what made Jeremy the person he was. He was always outspoken, and never afraid to voice his opinion anytime anywhere. Unfortunately Jeremy was taken from us far too soon, leaving behind his fiancée and their brand new baby girl Skylar. The Disco Biscuits community truly lost a special member on July 6th, 2003, and being the family that we are, we want to pay tribute to all those nights Jeremy was out in the audience, cheering us on, smiling immensely when we did get it perfect. On Friday and Saturday January 16th and 17th, we'll pay tribute to Jeremy with 2 benefit concerts in his honor at his hometown venue, Ft. Lauderdale's Culture Room. This will be an intimate gathering of family and friends, and we hope you'll join us there for what stands to be an epic weekend. All profits from the shows will go directly to Skylar and Kira. Tickets will be available on BiscoTix now and on Ticketmaster soon. For those coming from out of town, please visit www.southfloridajams.com in the next few days for more information. Also, please visit www.jeremyland.net, a memorial tribute to Jeremy, where you can find pictures and stories that celebrate his life. You can help, even if you can't attend Phantasy Tour is collecting donations that will be combined with the proceeds from the event and given to Skylar and Kira.
