No, this is not a chatathon or pay per word chat for charity (didn't you see the slash?!). Rather, it's two separate items. The first is that at this instant Frank Black is holding audience in The King Holds Court and if you hurry you may catch him.
The second is that we recently had a charity auction for Child ReachChildreach/PlanUSA that was very successful. Richard "Old Man In A Coffee Can" Hedgepath donated five Frank-Black autographed Americana Music Association (AMA) t-shirts with all proceeds going to Frank & Violet's favourite charity.
Not only that, but he threw in a few hard-to-get singles from his personal collection. All said, he helped raise almost $500 for the AMA and also Red Cross.
So thanks to Richard, and also to all who bid and gave for charity. And congratulations to our lucky winners, Eric, James, Jon, Kathleen, and Mike. And a special thanks to Kathryn, who though she lost the auction, still donated her bid to the charity.
We're proud to have such members on our site, and we wanted to share their success with you and thank them publically. So, again, to everyone, thank you from all of us at FrankBlack.Net!
- All of us!

General Chat. They're not sticky anymore.
