Bandcamp Concert: Weds, Dec 7 (save 50% on tickets) (Patreon)

Good morning, a few happy things to report. 

First, I scheduled my next Internet concert on Bandcamp for Weds, Dec 7 at 7 PM EST. Tickets are $20. BUT you can save 50%. Use the coupon code: save50dec2022x

Buy your tickets here.

As always, I really would like you to attend. IF for any reason, you're short on cash or the holidays are pressing down on you and you want to attend, message me with your email address and I'll send you a free invite to the concert and put you on the Guest List.

Second, my Mage Records store on Bandcamp is open again. All of my merch is currently available. I'm gonna try and add a few more Celtic Heartstrings to the store before it closes on Dec 9. But we shall see. Save 25% off ANYTHING you buy in the store.  Use the coupon code: gunnrunnersrule

Third, I have a show TONIGHT at The Lost Druid Brewery. No. It won't be live-streamed. But if you live in the area, I'd REALLY appreciate it if you would stop on in and buy a Thank You Card from Inara or a picture from Kenzie.

Inara has a Market Day event at school coming up. She's having ear surgery when the event takes place next week. So I thought instead, we'd keep the project going but sell stuff at tonight's gig.

All of the money that is raised will go to the Atlanta Community Food Bank. 

My family is very fortunate. We have food on our table every night. But that's not the case with a lot of people in Atlanta. 

It struck home when I heard the government was no longer funding lunch for kids at school.  I had a flash back to my elementary school days. A boy at our lunch table would eat ANYTHING we gave him. 

It didn't click then. But it made me realize, he was probably hungry. 

Part of why I wrote "Tough Times" is because I try to be compassionate enough to realize that most poor people are not lazy. They were dealt a rough hand in life. It's tough to escape the circle of financial oppression. The rich get richer. The poor get poorer. 

Heck, I would not be a musician now if I hadn't inherited money from my granddad when he passed away. I was irresponsible in college. I put myself into horrible debt. I lucked out.

It takes kindness and compassion to understand that some people need more help than others. That's something I want my children to learn.

So if you're able to support the fundraiser IN PERSON, that'd be brilliant. However, you can also give to the food bank right here.

Thank you for understanding and for your own compassion.
