Update – Haiti Benefits
More people have been offering to do whatever they can to help, and over the weekend we have increased the total to 186 500L. That is $717 US. I’m told that when you withdraw from SL you can lose up to 6% of it, so Robin and others have taken steps to see if Linden Labs will waive that conversion tax. Hopefully they will, but probably they won’t.
Robin Roar got on board, and she lined up Nad Gough and Damian Carbenell to play at LC Live on Sunday. They did a great job and raised over $300 during their shows. I played there earlier in the day, and also played at the 3 yr anniversary of Sterling Vineyards, where anything that was tipped to myself got added to the total.
I’m doing another show on Tuesday night that i will be donating tips from, and on Wednesday night Bree Birke is doing 3 or 4 hours of music with people being able to donate to Red Cross or Medecins Sans Frontieres. JellyJellyJelly Benelli is going to donate tips from her set to Medecins Sans Frontieres, an there will be another couple of sets that night, and I’m playing at 7pm SLT. Trying to line something up at Mason’s Barn, but hard to synch up schedules.
Hopefully we can try and get the total over 1000US$.
Thanks everyone. I was hoping to do some little thing by donating all my tips from shows.. but everyone has really multiplied it and made it something significant.
Nice work, old man. Let me know if you get my SL message. Hugs.
