VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

Deirdre · Posted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 3:03 pm Post subject: A VO Brother has been robbed

My Dear VO-BB Family—

My VO pal Jaye Delai from North Carolina was robbed today and thieves took all his studio stuff, right down to the cables and the monitors that were mounted on the wall.
He was about to move to a new place!

Can we assist with gear to loan?
I have cables I can send, and I'm finding out what his audio chain was.

Can we also rouse the VO-BB spirit and donate some bucks?
Send it to the VO-BB fund, and I'll send it on to Jaye.

Much Love,
Deebs

THANK YOU for the donations, folks.

Anything I receive this week and next will go to Jaye.

He was using:

Sennheiser 416
Symetrix 528 e
EMU 1616 audio interface

He also needs:
Computer
hard drive
cables (I'll bet I got those)
Monitor
Mic arm or mic stand

He also lost all his household stuff.
Bleah.

Shipping stuff from way over here on the left coast would be sort of silly - so I just hit the fund.

THANK YOU ALL.

Between here and Facebook the word has spread like mad and I have over $1500 to send— most of it from $10 and $20 donations.

If you can, please spare $5, $10 for our comrade-in-mics. He was totally cleaned out while attending the Little League World Series.

Deebs, I saw your link to donate on Facebook, but you might want to post it in this thread too. Smile

Hey John!
Go to the top of page,
to the left of the header you'll see a Big Round Blue VO-BB ball.
Below that is the "The VO-BB Fund" link Laugh

Thanks to everyone!! I must say it is certainly different to be raising money for someone who is here to enjoy it.

Spread the word! Link to the VO-BB donation portal:

http://www.vo-bb.com/TipJar.htm

We are receiving donations great and small from all over the place.
It's all so terribly necessary. The thieves stole everything—his children's clothes, even his Bible and Quran.

Deebs... I thought it was me, 'cos I couldn't find the donate link either. Liz pointing out the location didn't help as it wasn't there!

I investigated, and it seems that the link (both the donate and swag) do not appear on either the subSilver or Chronicles themes... only on the comicBook.

Quick... emergency coding required Gasp

Thanks for the Heads-up, Bish! I tend to forget that not all folks see this page the way I do.
