Tonight’s mystery artists were determined to so the ALS ice buckets challenge on a stage with all the electronics under the stage and were almost stopped. Can you guess who they might be??

It was in a theatre in Chicago where the union almost didn’t let the band Toto joined by longtime friend Michael McDonald who was touring with them at the time do the ice bucket challenge because all of the wiring in the theatre ran under the stage. In the end they used mostly ice and stood in a small pool for the dousing. ALS is a very personal cause for the group Toto who lost Mike Porcaro, bass player and brother to Steve Porcaro. The news media reported on March 15th of this year: Mike Porcaro of the Grammy-winning rock band TOTO, died early Sunday morning, March 15, following a battle with ALS.  Mike Porcaro, 59, was diagnosed in the mid-2000s and was forced to stop touring with the band in 2007. His brother noted, "Mike passed away peacefully in his sleep at 12:04 a.m. last night at home surrounded by his family. Rest in peace, my brother," said Mike’s brother and keyboardist for TOTO Steve Porcaro.
