And I was wondering if anybody know why that band has a link to the juvenile diabetes research foundation on their site? I'm diabetic so I'm curious.

they support em. I know they gave all the proceeds they made from the Coors Aspen Edge that they leased Mahgeeta to. They gave all that money to that foundation.

Jim's younger brother has juvenile diabetes.  The band has played shows in Louisville supporting the cause and the whole familly is very active in the walk for diabetes at Bowman Field in Louisville every year.
