A time for a new camera...

Post by tornandfrayed »

We will be at City Limits this Saturday night for the Hexhed/House of Cain romp through Depravity. Bring your cash and we will thow it in the can. We need about $500 to get this done.

The better the camera, the better the pictures of all the "Rock'N'Roll" Stars!

Two weekends in a row we will give you a location to show up and throw in your cash. If you cannot make it to a show and still want to donate then PM or email me.

After December 11th we will stop taking donations. Take a minute and $20 dollars and show how much we appreciate this guy! JP has done something for each and everyone of us and now he needs some help. I know you guys are going to jump on this! We have all said "Thank You!" a thousand times but thank you and a pile of shit still just leaves you with a pile of shit!

I will announce the next venue when I figure out where it will be. Any money left over after the camera is bought will go right to JP and he can get some accessories.

Tis the fucking season for us to make this happen for one of our own!

Loud and proud and willing to help! I know you want to so I will make it as easy as I can! Come on RockPage!

Dont forget that JP will need a memory card, which, depending on the camera, will cost about 39-79 dollars, a camera case which will be about 15-25 dollars, and some rechargable batteries which will be about 45 bucks.

Lets get out there and support the one who supported us for so long!
Lets give something back to the guy who gives us a voice!

Im currently helping him pick out a camera. He sent me a list of cameras that he had looked at and i picked out the one that i think will perform the best for him and gave him some info on it. I sell cameras every damn day, all day...Im the camera guy at Circuit City in j-town. The one that i told him about is a killer camera, and will do some pretty awesome work and is well priced. I do, however, suggest if there is more money left over, to get an accidental coverage plan on it also. It covers everything but fire....and theft. that runs about 129 for 4 years and 89 for 2 years.

Hey good peeps, I still want to donate $20. Since I work at The Castle Pub Tuesday through Saturday every week, I won't be able to make it to the show. Is there an address the money can be sent to for those of us that can't make it?

Not kidding Guys!

Post by tornandfrayed »

OK this is your chance! I guess we will see! You have to come out one time either this weekend or the next and donate money to this most worthy cause!

I am not kidding! This is for real! We will be there and we will gather money. We will give it to JP to procure the camera of his choice. We will get this done because we will do it.

Those of you who can't get to a single show to drop some cash off for this cause, I totally wish you would find a way. We don't want to have money rolling in dependent on snail mail! We don't want checks and money orders and shit like that! We want your cash! COLD, HARD, CASH!

Get together, find a way! I will even meet someone within reason, to get cash for this!

Saturday Night Decmber 3rd at "City Limits"

Hexhed will donate! House of Cain will donate! We can do this quick and easy for someone who has helped us all! Come on together we are strong!

Be there! Better yet we will post who has donated! We will not post amounts but we will post names or bands or whatever! Don't miss this opportunity to give bAck to someone who has given so much over the years...

Awesome idea Rob! I will post an address if people will send CASH ONLY!

If that is OK let me know and I will post the send to address, it would be much cooler if we could get it in person though!!!

We want to make this happen quickly so that it will be an awesome CHRISTmas "Thank YOU!" to JP!

THANK YOU!

I haven't said anything else on this thread so far because I felt it would be awkward for me to sound like I'm asking anybody to help me buy a new camera. I know that this time of the year, there are many, many people out there in our community who need things far more important than a camera. By all means, take care of those folks first!

But to those who have donated anything to help replace my stolen camera, my sincerest thanks. It's quite humbling to know that folks here on Rockpage want to help out with replacing my stolen camera, and it is very much appreciated. Know that your donations won't just replace a camera for me, but will ultimately benefit Rockpage and the music community as well! I have a few ideas for additions to Rockpage that could reach fruition once I am able to upgrade and replace my stolen camera. Any donations for the camera will help make this possible. This speaks volumes about the music scene here not just as musicians, but as human beings. Again, I'm deeply humbled by all that has been done thus far; thanks especially to tornandfrayed, bassistforlife2004, robthedrummer, Ron and all other Rockpagers who have chosen to help me out. It is very much appreciated, and be assured I will continue to do the things I do to publicize the area music scene for a long, long time to come!

This area's music scene RULES!!!

You all did good last night! It was snowing but people still came out! We got some cash to get this started!

Now I realize that some of you guys might be intimidated by City Limits so next week on FRIDAY NIGHT!

Aldos- Friday Dec 9th

Hexhed
House of Cain


JP's Money Camera will be at Aldos this Friday Night to continue the collection! We have a big piece of poster board that everyone is signing and we will give that to Jim when this is all said and done. We want you there to have a good time and throw some money in the pot. We did good last night but we need more!

I know you guys can do it.

For those who cannot make it out then we will ask that you send cash, like a birthday card. Put some greenbacks in a card, slap it in the mail and we will include the cards with the poster board.

Send your donations to

Dave Moses
100 Dell St
Hollidaysburg, Pa 16648


Cash Only cause I don't have time to be dicking around with checks and shit like that. Send it now iof you are going to send it! We need it quick so we can make this happen!

All the moeny we get goes to JP. We are going to get the camera and then let him pick out the bag and other crap that he needs!

So come on! Bring it on RockPage!

Not to pick nits or anything, but Thursday's the 8th, the 25th Anniversary of the death of John Lennon, so that would make Friday the 9th.

Point well taken! My apologies, I am a "big picture" kind of guy and sometimes the details ( like the date! ) elude me!

Rob, sorry I missed you last night at City Limits. Stopped in to give you the money for the camera. Your band mates said you went to pick someone up. Tried to make it back for the show but got stuck in the valley in ice and snow so needless to say I was pissed. So finally went home and got tanked. Will either mail it or bring it to Aldo's show. Rock On Brother!!!!!

Do you have a PayPal account? Mail would take too long to get there.
