Our story began the night a girl in a tutu crossed paths with the Midnight Mosher at a Beartooth show. Billy was grieving the loss of his mother and brother, and Amanda was searching for something real. In the middle of the pit—surrounded by chaos, sweat, and sound—we found an unexpected calm. A connection forged in noise, not silence. From that moment on, everything changed.

Our favorite memory? Hands down—Lamb of God’s Headbangers Boat. It was our first trip out of the country, and we were chosen to clean a Dominican beach alongside our hero Randy Blythe. We gifted him the Cogs of War World Championship Mosh Pit Belt and shared a moment that still feels surreal. That trip wasn’t just about music—it was about purpose, connection, and proving that even chaos can lead to healing.

We’d use the $20,000 to take care of what matters—Billy’s knee surgery so he can move without pain, and the final repairs on my home from Hurricane Helene. We’re not broken, we’re battle-tested. This isn’t about being saved—it’s about honoring the life we’ve built, the storms we’ve already survived, and the stage we’re about to take next. Inkcarceration, Headbangers Boat—we’re just getting started.
