Johnny Gioeli first sent a video message to the superfan students during the pandemic. Johnny is also the vocalist for rock band who have written and performed several songs from the听听series produced by听听补苍诲听, including the theme tune 鈥楽onic Heroes鈥.

In his original video message, Johnny said:

鈥淚 want to thank you from the heart for your support for loving all of the Crush 40 tunes and for supporting me through my entire career.鈥

He also promised to try to meet them both in person when he was able. Joe and Ethan are delighted that he has kept his pledge.

Halfway through the gig, he shouted out 鈥榃here are my Crush 40 guys? Johnny also signed Joe鈥檚 Sonic t-shirt and Ethan鈥檚 Sonic game.
