Bring Rebellion to Dave "Spotty" Whatmore

Donation protected
Hi Plymouth Peeps and the Punk Community - or anyone else that would like to donate - hey we're not discriminatory

In May this year, Dave was diagnosed with inoperable cancer.

In June he was led to believe that with immunotherapy and targetted radiotherapy, although it would still be inoperable, it would enable him to have an extended innings with us.

In July he was advised that if the immunotherapy doesn't work then he may not see Xmas. We believe Dave is made of stronger stuff like Wilco - hammer it geezer!

The immediate knee-jerk reaction to me and a bunch of Dave's mates was to send him to Rebellion Festival...but on reflection didn't know how he would feel when treatment started and how someone in his condition would take long drives to and from Blackpool as well as spending 4 days in the Wintergardens, knowing how stifling can be at the venue...even with just a hangover.

Our idea is to get one of two of Dave's favourite bands together to play for him in Plymouth along with a bunch of local bands to play tribute to this dear friend as things are not getting easier for him.

We have had one of his faves confirmed and hope to hear back from the others - the more money we can raise, the more likely we will be able to give him what he would love...some of the bands want a bit more than I would have expected, but they need to earn a crust.

You are incredible THANK YOU SO MUCH - we reached our original target which hadn't been thought about. We have raised the bar slightly as your generous donations have made his ultimate band more accessible...still may not be able to get them - but getting this far, we have to try.

Please give generously - Dave means a lot to many people and we will not be able to complete his wishes without your help

Please do not donate anonymously unless you are uncomfortable with it - any donation is a good donation.

Thanks for reading and considering - please share
