Mike Langford's Stolen Gear Fund!
Donation protected
Hi Friends!
If you've found yourself on this gofundme page it's because you've just learned (via Facebook) that while on a nation wide tour, last night in Abilene, TX the personal belongings of one of the most selfless and caring people I know Mike Langford, one fourth of Deadset Society , was stolen from behind the merch table at the venue...
While we're thankful that everyone is safe, becoming another statistic of musicians who are targeted and victimized is difficult (and maddening as I type this) - I think we know the guys well enough that it will not outshine their love and dedication they have for music, and all the people they've met along this journey.
The contents of this bag (aka office in a backpack) contained not only cash value items (laptop, tablet, ipods, cables etc...) but these items are vital tools of the day-to-day operations of running a business, the band - this is how Mike and the band make a living. The value is said to be $8,000 CAD. Once we reach the goal, we'll donate the remaining funds to a charity that gives kids/youths access to music (sourcing info now).
Thanks for reading, sharing, and reaching out to Mike and the band. I hope you'll help and share this in anyway you can - it feels good too.
much love, Jessica.
