UGA Tumornators Percentage Night!!
Our First UGA Tumornators Percentage Night was a HUGE success! Special Thanks to Travis Boyles and Sand Bar for your support! Travis Boyles donated his time to play for the event, and played some great music. Travis Boyles is from Athens and often plays in local bars and other venues. Sand Bar was a vital part in our success for allowing us to have a percentage of their sales for the night! We can't thank everyone enough for coming out and supporting us! We are having another percentage night Tuesday, November 17, 2009 at On the Rocks on Clayton Street. So we hope to see everyone out for another great night of fighting for a cure for NF!

 The Tumornators teamed up with nine talented country songwriters, including Grammy-winner Hillary Lindsey, on Apr. 3, 2009 at the Melting Point in Athens, Ga. to raise money for the Children's Tumor Foundation.
In her round, Lindsey played old favorites including her Grammy-winning hit, "Jesus Take the Wheel" in addition to a few of her new, uncut songs such as "Paper Heart." Joining her on stage were Jedd Hughes and Gabriel Kelley, who also shared their talent of songwriting with the nearly sold-out crowd.
Two rounds preceded the three headliners and featured Hannah Dasher, Rachel Farley, Derrick Southerland, Matt Moore and Ashley Ray.
