annotation event listener issue

So I'm pulling in 2 separate annotations (a client and a user annotation) through a jsonreponse and plotting it on the map just fine. The issue im running into deals with the eventlistener for the annotations.

I have one annotation with a right and left button, and another annotation with just a right button. The problem is that while setting an eventlistener on an annotation, I'm unable to define which annotation im selecting.

So basically, regardless of which annotation I select, be it the client or the user annotation, the eventlistener activates for both of them.

don't know about annotations, so i guess:

var anno1 = addEventListener('myEvent',function(e){ alert(e.foo); });
var anno2 = addEventListener('myOtherEvent',function(e){ ... });
...
Ti.App.fireEvent('myEvent',{foo: 'bar'});
...
anno1.removeEventListener('myEvent',anno1);
...

I use this, i'm doing a loop that creates my annotations, but then this allows it to fire just the one.

mapview.addEventListener('click',function(evt)
{

    // map event properties
    var annotation = evt.annotation;
    var title = evt.title;
    var endLat=evt.annotation.latitude;
    var endLon=evt.annotation.longitude;
    var clickSource = evt.clicksource;

        if (clickSource=="rightButton")
        {
      do stuff
        }
});

Basically you're going to reference things by evt
