If you know the band, or have simply followed their career, then you will also know it isn't in their nature to ask for help, or in colloquial terms 'hawners'.
We had what could be called an absolute disaster driving back from Belgium at the weekend there and we are pretty much screwed.
A deer came out of nowhere when we were on our way back to the ferry port.
Apart from being shaken up we're all okay, but the car is a mess, we're financially ruined and we ended up stuck at a hotel in Belgium for a couple of days. Didn't see this coming at all and we're all mentally buggered.
Currently on our way to Calais to get a ferry back without the car and then we're getting trains back home. We've tried to add everything up and we're looking at losing a couple of grand in total at least. It may be time to take a little break and figure out what to do after this.
I'm going to sell some of my stuff online soon and also see about putting together some sort of acoustic rammy in Edinburgh next month to see if we can claw some money back. I'm not expecting us to be bailed out or anything and hate even posting about it, but I just knocked a bunch of money off our merch on www.themurderburgers.bandcamp.com if anyone is interested. You can also now download our entire discography for less than a tenner as well. You can pay more if you feel like it, but you can also totally not do that if you don't want to.
Any sales will be much appreciated and will definitely help. Even just sharing this would help.
Sorry for even posting about it. My brain mind hurts a lot.
That they have felt the need to put this out there means that it really is time to rally round and help them out.
They aren't even asking for a hand out, but instead are looking to generate the cash from giving people something in return.
Starting off with downloading their back catalogue would be a start.
You know what to do.
