Country 106.5 WYRK and Roswell Park Cancer Institute are coming together for Country Music Inspires Cures, a collaboration to benefit RPCI's Center for Personalized Medicine, and straight from his closet, Toby Keith's jeans are helping the cause...

Make no mistake about it. Aaron Lewis IS country. Thursday night at Club Infinity, Aaron brought his roots and music to a sold out crowd. I am not sure exactly what the crowd expected prior to the show and honestly I was not exactly sure what to expect.

Roswell Park’s Tree of Hope is now illuminated in Kaminski Park and Gardens throughout the month of December.  The debut of the tree was last Friday (December 7), and Toby’s Jeans were there for the lighting ceremony along with Santa and Mrs. Claus.

James Wesley has fast become a fan favorite in Western New York, giving us hits such as "Real" and "Didn't I" and having visited the area several times. James was back in Buffalo last Friday night (November 30) at Club Infinity and delivered another solid show for his Buffalo fans.  He was also kind enough to add his autograph to Toby's Jeans.

From now until WYRK’s Taste of Country this June, you can enter for a chance to own a pair of jeans worn by Toby Keith and signed by him and some of country music's hottest musicians, like Randy Houser and Josh Thompson.  Last night (November 28) at our Acoustic Winter Taste Of Country, Jerrod Niemann, Love & Theft and Joanna Smith added their signatures to Toby’s Jeans.

The big night is tonight! Not only is it the Winter TOC at Shea's, but we also unveil Toby Keith's Traveling Jeans! This is a promotion we are running to support cancer research at Roswell Park until the Taste Of Country 2013. Wendy Lynn got her hands on a pair of jeans worn/autographed by Toby Keith. They will make the rounds for almost a year around the globe and be given away in June!

Toby's Jeans have been making their way all over, and thanks to Instagram, we can easily track everywhere they've been! Take a peek at the photos below.

All of us at WYRK are planning to have a whole lot of fun taking Toby's Jeans all over Buffalo in the next few months. But there are plenty of places we won't get to -- so we need your help!

I was asked to be a guest bartender at Brawlers (in the basement of Pearl Street Bar & Grill) on Thursday night for a special cause. Every year, they host a benefit for Roswell Park that includes a sandwich eating contest, some raffles and a guest bartender.

Every Friday morning, Clay and Dale chat with our friends on Winging It! Buffalo Style via their superhuman power to be in two places at once (JK -- we've got a studio webcam!). This morning (October 5), Winging It!'s Amelia got to learn more about Toby's Jeans.

Aside from Toby himself, Randy Houser, Josh Thompson and Andy Gibson were the first to sign Toby's Jeans at our WYRK Acoustic Show last Sunday (September 30).

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and what better way to show your support than to add a pink Roswell Park Cancer Institute "twibbon" to your profile picture on Twitter and Facebook? It's really a pretty simple thing to do. Here's how…
