Bass Stolen - Merch Giveaway

So I had my bass stolen, worth £700 oop. I've been struggling to get back on stage with it since System Paralysis broke up, and that had me down, but when my bass was nicked I was devastated. That bass was my baby. You know how it is. 

I wouldn't normally ask for money - few of us have anything to give and begging is beneath me - however I realised that I'm sitting on a shitload of System merch which I've been trying to flog or give away. So why not combine the two?

For any donation towards a new bass guitar and you can have any merch that you want. There are about 30 hats, 30 CDs and 50 shirts left, so plenty to go around. Also about 100 posters which I'm really wanting to flog. They're good posters too.
If you already have one of our shirts, why not get the other (there are 2 designs). Buy a hat and burn it in remembrance of Hull's best punk band so far ever. Get a CD and ship it to Palestine where its dulcet tones may sooth the battered hearts of desperate people fighting for a semblance of human rights and respect-... ugh, I mean, terrorists. 

I've spent the past 9 months writing and trying to get together a solo set of a handful of songs re-worked from System and some originals I could do at open mic nights. I was close to getting on stage then this happened and fucking crushed me. So any support would be really appreciated, and I don't feel like I'm begging because I'm giving useless crap away so I get to keep my honour too I guess. 

Thanks for reading. When you make a donation, message me with what you'd like of the merch. We can arrange to meet up at a gig or at my house (down newland ave), or I can post it if you're out of town (so long as your donation covers postage).
Tom.
