Brantley Gilbert To Help Raise Money For Waffle House Victims

T-shirts will raise money for the victims.

(Nashville, TN)  --  Brantley Gilbert is teaming up with the man who wrestled the gun away from the Waffle House shooter to raise money for the victims. 

Gilbert met up with James Shaw Junior yesterday at a Nashville rehearsal hall.  The two came up with the idea to sell t-shirts to benefit the shooting victims and their families. 

The t-shirts will say "I Believe in Heroism" and feature an image of Shaw's bandaged head. 

Shaw was burned while he was wrestling the gun away from the shooter, who killed four people and injured several others.
