For anyone who may not know, Nick is the founder of MKE Royals and he was recently in a car accident that totaled his vehicle and fractured many of his bones. It is a miracle he is still with us 🖤 His family and friends have been with him through his recovery and he is adamant in continuing to be involved in our upcoming show. If you’re in the audience for our Skyyline show next week, give him an extra loud cheer. He has something cheeky planned for you all 💋
