Urgent Help Needed to Replace Matt Masons Stolen Drum Gear.

Hello everyone. My name is Matt Mason, and I have been playing drums for what will be 20 years exactly next month on my birthday. It’s my biggest passion and hobby that I hope to someday be able to turn into a career.

I had just played a show in Dallas on November 2nd, and not 40 minutes after I got back to my hotel, I heard a car alarm go off and the flashers blinking on what appeared to be my vehicle. I then saw headlights speeding away from it. I ran down to confirm that yes, it was my car. The left rear window and the small quarter panel glass window behind it were smashed out, and my cymbal bag with all my cymbals had been stolen. All $2,485 worth of cymbals I’d acquired over the years, plus my sticks, drum keys, and module that controls the lights I installed inside my drums. I used them all and now have absolutely nothing except the drum shells.

I have one of the most important shows of my life on November 21st in Houston and feel completely defeated and hopeless to ever even be able to get what I need to perform, much less in time for that show. I was recommended to make one of these, so here I am asking for anybody’s help that is able and willing to help with this very saddening situation. Anything at all is appreciated more than I could ever type or say, and I will be extremely grateful.

Donations will go to purchasing these cymbals so I can have my sound back!
