Dear Friends

<div>I have recently experienced some major life setbacks.
</div>

<div>My marriage ended a few months ago, and I have been left homeless, save for the good graces of some beloved friends. With my Ebay business no longer in operation, I am currently left without a source of steady income. Conspiring in the humorous nature the universe often engenders, I now also need a second hip replacement. Yeah. It will be at least two months before I am able to schedule the necessary operation, and then three subsequent months of recovery time will be necessary before I am able to work again. 
</div>

<div>I am doing my best to avoid ending up in the NYC shelter system, but I am currently without a source of funds while homeless and injured. I never dreamed that I would would be asking for help in such a public manner - and I am embarrassed and humiliated to do so - but I find that I now need to ask for help with funds for food and shelter while going through this transition.<br />Any assistance you can offer will be appreciated. <br /><br />I will repay every dime, and every kindness offered.

Hip Replacement and Recuperation  Fund

<strong>Richard Lloyd here. I lost my studio space in midtown Manhattan and am moving to Tennessee at the end of the year. I have all my gear to move and set up plus household things but when I get there  to build a new studio and I plan on recording a new record both electric and perhaps an acoustic number. Music means everything to me. Art means everything to me. I'm the founding member of the band Television, and a prime mover in the foundation of CBGBs new-wave and punk rock movement earning a place in rock history, especially their first album Marquee Moon, which still ranks as one of the top debut albums of all time. Please help me to make another valuable record which ought to come out next spring. I certainly need the money before December, so I'm hoping</strong> that my fans and friends freely donate knowing the money is going to where it says it's going and to a good cause.

<div>Matthew Sweet, our longtime inspiration and dear friend, suffered a debilitating stroke this past week in Toronto while in the early days of a national tour. He has been unexpectedly and tragically forced off the road and onto a long, uncertain path to recovery. We are asking for financial help in this difficult time from his family, friends, and fans. Without insurance or touring income, Matthew faces an enormous financial burden.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The doctors and hospital care in Toronto were instrumental in saving Matthew's life, but health care is not free for Americans in Canada. He must now be flown back to the States on an ambulance transport plane with medical staff on board, to a specialized rehabilitation center, where he will receive around-the-clock care and therapy for six weeks. He will then require months of treatment and rehabilitation that we hope will lead to a full recovery. Needless to say, the costs for all of this treatment will be overwhelming. We anticipate a total close to a quarter of a million dollars. Your thoughts, love, and support will mean the world to him. But please donate financially if you possibly can. Matthew will be forever grateful to you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For those who do not know Matthew personally, you are probably familiar with his music. Matthew Sweet emerged from the 80's Athens, Georgia music scene and became a leading figure of the power pop revival in the 90's with the release of his album “Girlfriend” in 1991. The songs "Girlfriend" and "I've Been Waiting" became fan favorites. His next two records, “Altered Beast” (1993) and “100% Fun” (1995) included the popular songs, "Time Capsule" and "Sick of Myself."
