The CD Release Party for "broken like a starfish" was held at The Bassment in Saskatoon on December 11, 1998. The event was a huge success and much fun for all involved. Sarah would like to thank Chris Martin and Still for putting on such fabulous performances as the opening acts. Of course, she is ever grateful to "her boys" for the three hour set and for everything they put into her songs before, during, and after. Thanks to Lori and the rest of the Bassment staff. Thanks also to Amy, Becky, Maggie and Maggie's friends for working the door, selling CD's and counting people. Thank you to everyone who came to the show for your enthusiasm, especially "the dance floor people". A very special thank you and *big hug* to Chris Martin for sound, equipment, for putting up with the confusion of soundchecking two Aaron's at once, for love, support, and for keeping me grounded. And finally, an equally special thank you to Maggie and Daddy for being guestSTARS.
