For one of my best friends, ever...



"It's CRUNCH TIME and I need your HELP!

Just over 2 weeks to go, and I can REALLY use your HELP with my kidney transplant fundraiser! 

Thanks to SO MANY great friends (both old and new), my fundraiser is over halfway to it's goal.... 

PLEASE help push it there, and help relieve a big part of the financial burden that comes along with this lifesaving transplant (which will be happening in October)! ANYTHING HELPS! 

Yes, even contributions of just $1 or 2 or 5 add up, and will make a BIG difference! Everyone who has helped and who WILL help has the promise of my utmost appreciation, and will see the results of this success in the form of LOTS more great shows & events, and benefits to assist other musicians and music community folks in-need, as I've always taken great pride in assembling! 

PLEASE help me now that "CRUNCH TIME" has arrived! ♥"

"A kinship in music, an unfailing support for almost 30 years as a best friend, a passionate dedication to support musicians across the world (especially locally), an enviable record & memorabilia collection, a flair for retro concert poster design, and an ear, eye and heart for all things cool and wonderful. My friend Jerry Clayworth's twinkly eyes are shining through a time that would have leveled most others. He is about to endure a kidney transplant and is raising money to cover expenses. Please visit his page and consider even a tiny donation. Like, what you'd spend on a Cassingle or something..."

"This is Texas friend-of-music (and friend of Antone's) Jerry Clayworth. He runs Atomic Jukebox, which you really should familiarize yourself with. For 30 years Jerry has been a promoter, photographer, poster artist, graphic designer and, most of all, fan of the San Antonio/Austin music scene. He's also done a lot of benefit shows for a lot of people over the years. Currently he finds himself on the "in need" side of the coin. We hope our Antone's friends and family will check out his story and maybe even "Share" this link. You'd be helping a very deserving person if you'd consider that."

"Of the people I follow on Facebook, there are few as active in promoting good music and culture than Jerry Clayworth. Beyond be an awesome poster artist, he's a died in the wool music freak and responsible for mounting multiple campaigns to help musicians out when they needed a hand. I in a grimly ironic turn of events, Jerry now finds himself at the razors edge and in turn could use some help himself now. If you feel so moved, he could really use some help right now with his kidney transplant. They have a donor match and all he needs now is the scratch to get it put in and nicely settled so he can go back to helping others. He's got 30 days left and a long way to go, so every little bit helps"
