The judges of the 2014 Battle of the Corporate Bands: of Jeff Carlisi of .38 Special, Jack Blades of Damn Yankees and Night Ranger, and Ricky Byrd of Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Missing from the picture are: Liberty Devitto --drummer for 

Billy Joel, and Rob Arthur - Keyboards with Peter Frampton.  These guys were very nice and chatted with us quite a bit this year and last year.  Liberty thinks I'm a crazy bunny lady. 
Jim pretend yawning while my baby nephew, only 10 days old, makes a giant yawn.
