Rockin For the Cure

I do not know if The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is ramping up their efforts at fund-​raising, or if I am only becoming aware of all the events they are putting on in the QC, but one thing is sure — it has been a busy month!
Just a week ago, we were down the street at the Brewer’s Ball, and here we are at Rockin’ for the Cure.
This event was mostly mingling, with a bunch of silent auctions set up in the back of Amos’, and a huge buffet of wings upstairs. After you picked up your fill of wings, and settled into the night, the real fun began with a live auction.
While the event at OMB was a bit more intimate, they did not have the rockin’ cover tunes of Pointless after all was said and done, so it was a pretty close contest between the two.

We got here at about 8:40. Unfortunately, some of the silent auctions had already ended. The live auction was cool, albeit above my budget. One of the items auctioned was a dinner prepared by a chef I know, so that was cool.
It was at Amos’ which is a pretty cool venue. The wing buffet upstairs was good, but not much for vegetarians. That worked out though nice we took a nice walk over to Midnight Diner afterwards.
The cover band, «Pointless» was entertaining and added some flavor the event. It was a pretty fun event overall for a good cause, and finally got me to check out Amos.’ Despite living in Charlotte for 10 years, and for a while pretty close to the venue, I had never been.
