Message From Conflict:
Hello I am personally taking it upon myself via my position in Conflict to spearhead a campaign to raise funds to finance a life saving operation for Paco Conflicts drumming machine since 1981 and a very special friend. The situation is nothing less than desperate. In short the hospital taking care of Paco has stated that they have insufficient funds to complete the operation until this time NEXT YEAR! By this time I believe Paco will have lost the will to live!! The man whose drumming has inspired a generation of musicians, who has dedicated his life to this scene and a fantastic human being is already housebound. Paco is an extremely intelligent, enthusiastic person with a great sense of humour who I believe will not survive in his present condition. Full details of Pacos hospital operation requirements will be released upon request but again in short it is necessary to cut away much of Pacos weight before tackling his diseased leg. Conflict have organised three benefit concerts so far on all titled ItAint over til the Fat Fella Sings: Friday 25th August 2006 London The Cartoon in Croydon. Admission £6.00 supports to be confirmed. Saturday 26th August 2006 Stockport The Thatched House. Admission £10.00 supports Dogsflesh, Refuse All and External Menace. Bank Holiday Sunday 27th August 2006 Derby First Floor (Supanova), 33 Babbington Lane, Derby DE1. The Gathering of the Thousands Festival with Conflict, Broken Bones, The Varukers, 4 Past Midnight, No Choice, Paranoid Visions and more to be confirmed. Admission £14.50 Tickets are available now from http://www.mortarhate.com/mortadmin/...n.php?view=122 Conflict are accepting appearance offers now from people who want to organise more. I am looking into more ways to raise funds at present. I dont usually do this, but I am asking you if you can help Paco in anyway then please do so NOW. If you can spare a donation even if its just £1.00, thats great. If you can organise fundraising events even better. If you do want to send a donation please send via Paypal using the following link this takes you to a special donation page, which you can use with Paypal accounts or credit/debit cards. Please do not send any money to Mortarhate. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin....UTF%2d8 You can also send cheques to made out to F. Carreno, via PO Box 448, Eltham, London SE9 2QS please mark the envelope Paco. There is a chance that Paco can have his operation on August 9th so please act fast. If everyone on this mailing list could spare just 50p, it would pay for this operation and leave some towards further operations. I apologise if you find this email intrusive, but I cannot sit back as others seem content to do and watch another mate die. If you cannot assist Paco in anyway financially, then please send letters ofencouragement via the PO Box or post messages online. Finally, everyone knows that I will joke about anything and so does Paco, sowere looking for your favourite one-liners for the campaign title. Some suggestions so far. A Pound for the porker Slimfast is Shite.
