The evening was packed with improv performances from comedians Kevin Nealon and Nate Bargatze, the Groundlings Alumni, a surprise appearance by actress Bonnie Hunt, and comedic music performances by Brad himself, who also emceed the evening and joined the Groundlings for improv.

More than $100,000 was raised for The Store from the 300-seat full capacity crowd and donations, which are still streaming in.

Founded by the Paisleys, The Store is a free-referral based grocery store which aims to help empower low-income individuals and families in the Nashville area by allowing people to shop for their basic needs in a way that protects dignity and fosters hope.
