cancer. I'm sure everyone on this board knows someone
who's faced this shitty disease. Be a part of this and do

OK....so the wheels are in motion and we have a great show for you.
Obviously there are only so many bands we could fit on the bill and
there were some bands we asked that couldn't make it due to scheduling
issues. We want everyone to be a part of this and to support this benefit
and seriously try to get some $ raised for Marks medical expenses. The
dude needs serious cash to keep his life saving medicines coming and having
this benefit is just a chip at the stone for what his medical needs are.
So I'm asking with respect to all of you to please come out and donate.
If you can't make it that night...or the music isn't your cup of tea...
PLEASE stop by and see the good people at the Armageddon shop and
drop off a couple of bucks. They have also given a donation/paypal
account that you can donate too(listed in thread)...PLEASE do it.
Mark is a great guy, a part of our scene and we wanna show him we
care as a community....
Also...I'm asking any bands in town that aren't part of the show this
night if they can donate records/posters/t-shirts ANYTHING towards
our raffle that we are working on. I'm asking ANY business that is part
of our community to donate something towards the raffle...just one item
is all we ask...more is even better..but do what you can. We have some
great stuff for the raffle (Mr Pageau has donated a $150 voucher for
a tattoo at his shop as one of the prizes..and we truely thank him...
he's a good man.) Look...a show is just a show..it's entertainment.
This is more than that...these are the times when we can come
together as a community and do something good...show why our
scene is one of the best in the country....show we care about each other
and make a difference when somebody needs it. We need your help...Mark
needs your help...and I'm calling on all of you. PLEASE be a part of this.
You can drop off items at the Armageddon shop...you can drop off items
to Kaleigh at White Electric or if you see me on a flyer run...hit me up.
ANYTHING you can do is welcome. THANK YOU. metal

Ps: If anyone wants to set up a table to sell stuff to help the benefit
PLEASE get in touch with me at Iamprovidence666@yahoo.com or PM
me here. It would be greatly appreciated!!!!

BANDS c'mon man...I know you can spare a cd or a t-shirt for the
raffle. I'm calling in the favor...i've done shit tons for alot of you
through the years and I'm asking you to PLEASE donate to this
benefit. Maybe you don't know Mark that well...but this could
be your father, your sister, anyone you care about. I've lost
my mother,my grandmother, two uncles and friends to cancer
and this fight is personal to me. So the gloves are off...and I'm
calling on everyone to help. I know times are tough but everyone
can spare a dollar...everyone can spare an extra cd...evryone
can donate SOMETHING. PLEASE. Any local business's that goes
the same for you...HELP US.
Also like I said earlier in the thread...not everyone plays in a band
so if you want to be part of this...set up a table..sell some cookies...
some art...put on a fucking puppet show...we need you...let's make
this an event...let's show we care as a community...COME TOGETHER.
WE NEED YOU. MARK NEEDS YOU. HELP US MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

Hey everyone...THANKS so much for coming out last night and making
the benefit a total success. We ended up making $5750.00 towards
Marks medications and treatments!! I am going to meet up with him
sometime today to drop it off . There are almost too many people
to begin to thank and I'd be afraid to try to list everyone because so
many awesome people,business's,artists and musicians gave generously
with their time,money, and gifts...and I don't wanna skip anyone. Maybe
Armageddon has a complete list...but if not THANK YOU ALL. This is when
Providence shines the brightest and when I am humbled and proud to be a
part of her...I do wanna give a personal thanks to my longtime friend and
band mate Ben Barnett for running with the ball all the way with me on this.
He went above and beyond on every level and if you get a chance to swing
by the A-shop give'm some love. ALSO: our crew of Chris A, Cyndi D, Kaleigh M,Pippi Z, Dave Fischer,Pete Squeezy,Jim Otis,Jeff Pageau,Pete and Cafe
Intelligencia,and everyone who stayed to help clean up and help out at the
end. You fucking ruled. Thanks to all the amazing bands that played
and slayed, everyone KILLED IT. Finally THANK YOU to everyone who came,donated and rocked out for this cause...I thank you and most of all
Mr Mark Elliot thanks you. THANK YOU PROVIDENCE (and Boston!!!)

I'm one of those people that hates smoke with a passion. I wanted to design a cigarette that kills you 99.999% of the time when you smoke for the first time.

nobody else but a few people noticed there was smoking during a cancer benefit, there were actually signs for smoking to be done out back, people are used to smoking there during a show, however, i think it was just one of those things that was so obvious that nobody really noticed.

yeah, I'm certainly not bitching about it. I just had to go so I wouldn't sneeze through Haxen's set.

I'm on board with the Rev on the smoking. I fucking hate the shit.
I am 100 percent anti smoking and to me it's personal because it
killed my mother. On the flip of the coin...we allow smoking at the
space because we believe people have the right to do what they
want (personal freedom). I smoke weed so I'd be a fucking hypocrite
to knock the dude next to me for dragging on a butt. Doesn't mean
I have to like it...but yeah...for the non smoking majority that comes
to these shows...I think we are gonna try to do a more controlled
smoking area and industrial fans for next time. Mars Gas Chamber
is still a new space and we are working through it, so we will figure
how to make things better and run smoother as we progress.
I'm glad people had a good time. Both me and Ben busted ass
for a month and a half straight to get this running and it definitely
was a success all around and we raised ALOT of $. So I'm happy.
I do gotta say there was alot of crusty puke that me and my gf had
to clean up the next day. BRUTAL. I'm gonna start supplying fuckin
puke bags to anyone with an Amebix patch at the next show. Thanks
again for coming out!

ps:
someone left a black denim jacket with punk patches all over it
(Conflict,Dropdead,Health Hazard)...it's going in our lost and found
box til someone contacts me. $8 bucks in the pocket...no ID

I'm all for personal freedoms. and personally, I don't mind people smoking dope around me, but cigarettes in an enclosed space are a different story. Your personal freedoms stop where my toes begin and since people who smoke around others force smoke down others throats, that is not a personal freedom. a personal freedom would be someone eating a cheeseburger around me. they can do it all they want, but if they cram the burger into my mouth, throat, body there is an issue. I'm not saying that the cigarette smoke there was oppressive. Just saying that it was there and weird that it was there.
One of the times I saw MOD, billy milano said "thanks for smoking remind me to shit in a bag and make you smell it"

I'm still amazed. I was thinking "this show is doing ok" and then dropdead got on stage and I thought "this show is doing awesome!"

When we were down by the bathrooms putting on corpse paint some drunk ass cruster kid came down to boot. He stared at us, looked real confused, and then just let it go in a trash can (props for making the can). Haha.

I like the collectible puke bag ideas.

i seriously might do that for shits and giggles for the next
big gig I do at Mars gas. Have some local artist/reprobate
do up some special edition bags....that would be hilarious.

it seems from everything I can find that they have been around or a while, but that's no excuse. plus myspace is now the underground option.

That isn't the first time Brain Handle has played Providence.

i also think that smoking was allowed that night because we didn't want to have kids outside all night in the front of the building drinking and smoking. it would have gave cops a reason to check out the place a little closer and possibly come inside. also, i don't think marks illness was smoking related. but yeah, it made me sick to my stomach.

also from Ben Armageddon:

Ok, here's some more fundraising for the Providence Band Aid 3 for Mark.

Due to an oversight one box of raffle items was left behind, so now we have them at Armageddon Shop.

It's books, posters, and records.

We're going to sell them and give all the $$ to Mark, the list is below, so if any of these interest you, come on by and buy 'em and you'll still be helping mark out.

The Records, 1 copy each available:

Murder City Devils - In Name And Blood LP $9.99
Elliott Smith - Self Titled LP $8.99
MC5 - Kick Out The Jams LP $9.99
T Rex - Electric Warrior LP $9.99
Velvet Underground And Nico - Andy Warhol LP $9.99
Nick Drake - Bryter Later LP $14.99
Barry White - Can't Get Enough LP $6.99
Marvin Gaye - Let's Get It On LP $9.99
Le Tigre - Self Titled LP $5.99
Velvet Underground - Self Titled LP $9.99
Jawbreaker - Dear You 2LP $19.99
Jawbreaker - Bivouac LP $29.99

The Book: if you don't have this, this is a great reason to pick one up before they're gone. The publisher is out of business, so if you want to have one I'd get on it sooner than later:
Ninja - By Brian Chippendale $34.95 (2 copies available)

The Posters:
18 x 24 screenprint by Brian Chippendale $20.00 (2 copies available)

Remember, ALL the $$ from these items will go to mark directly. We take nothing.
