The entire Clapcich Family would like to take this opportunity to thank all the friends, family, and fans that made The Michael's Fund Benefit Concert on Nov.18,2006 a spectacular success!! The Bitter End witnessed a crowd for the record books that evening, with many fans left cheering outside after "maximum venue capacity" was achieved mid-way through the show. Your tremendous support and generosity have touched us deeply, and we can only hope to share that soaring spirit and energy with you again in the near future!!

Buddahead, recording artists extraordinaire by way of London and NYC, open the show with a bang! Raman Kia leads the boys through a blistering 40-minute set that gets the crowd roaring!
