Abysmal Dawn and Bereft Auctioning Off Guitar For Charity!

Los Angeles-based death metal band Abysmal Dawn, and doom metal super group Bereft, are auctioning off an autographed guitar for the Sweet Relief Musicians Fund (www.sweetrelief.org). The auction is now live and can be viewed here along with pictures of the guitar. Here’s what Charles Elliott, vocalist/guitarist for both bands, had to say:

 

“Hey everyone, I’m auctioning off a guitar I won in a drunken heavy metal karaoke night a few months ago at a SCION event. Proceeds go towards the Sweet Relief charity, the same charity involved with the Death To All shows, to help musicians without health insurance cover their medical expenses. All the dudes from Abysmal Dawn and Bereft autographed this sucker, which means some dudes from Intronaut, National Sunday Law and The Faceless signed it as well. It’s a killer guitar but if you rather not play it I’m sure it will look great hanging in your living room or over your toilet in some glass container.
 
Just a little story about how I won the guitar. SCION threw a free heavy metal karaoke party a while back with an open bar. A couple of friends went including MMA fighter Josh Barnett and Cattle Decapitation singer Travis Ryan. A couple of drinks in and I thought it would be fun to get up and sing a song, if only because everyone up to that point was so goddamn awful. I got up and sang “Behind the Crooked Cross” by Slayer, Josh did “Ace of Spades” by Motörhead and Travis did “Shout Out the Devil” by Mötley Crüe. Needless to say we brought the house down. By the end of the night, I had unintentionally won a guitar I had no idea I was competing for. Considering I’m a ‘professional’ musician I thought it was a bit unfair that I won the guitar. Also, considering I already have ton of killer guitars from Fernandes Guitars I didn’t really need it. In the end, I figured the noblest thing to do was auction this bad boy off for a good cause. 
 
So that’s my story. Bid high, bid fast, and good luck!” 
 
Elliott recently took part in the Death To All 2012 tour as a vocalist and guitarist – In benefit of Sweet Relief (sweetrelief.org). This 5 city tour featured a majority of DEATH's amazing musicians, as well as special guests. This tour celebrated the life and music of Chuck Schuldiner, as well as raised awareness of Sweet Relief Musicians Fund – a charity that provides financial assistance to career musicians faced with illness, disability or age-related problems.

Прошло "Зуб мудрости" очень много лет с тех пор, как я последний "Чужие против пионеров" раз играл на этом инструменте.

Теперь они обитали в пространстве, заполненном цветными облаками, где "Сборник задач по мат-ке с решениями 8-11 кл" кроме них ничего не было.

Отсутствие "Двери" со стороны Чиуна каких-либо слов благодарности Анна объяснила "Космическая энергия Как преобразовать свою жизнь…" волнением старика при известии о "Моя подруга Элис" долгожданной находке.

Мейтланду даже показалось, что эта пышная растительность "Микроэкономика Джуха" чуть ли не сознательно пытается укрыть его от посторонних "Практическая энциклопедия русской кухни" глаз.

Человек, который играет в пристенок, не может быть безнадежно плохим.

Они вели его к "Дмитрий Медведев Человек который остановил время" северу, все выше "История 10-11 кл" и выше скользя к облакам, манящим своей белизной.

Ты "Сантехники и провидцы Расчеты по сделкам с ценными бумагами…" всегда отличался практичностью и сам просчитывал "500 самых необходимых слов итальянского языка" все варианты и возможности.

Каков сейчас твой род, мы не знаем.

Но "Как исцелиться от недугов и болезней" тут понял, что потом "Эх ты Борька" куда труднее будет надеть их "Бураттини Фашизм прошел" обратно.

Всему персоналу станции и инженерам придется эвакуировать больных и "Русско-немецкий разговорник" запасные каюты, избавиться от балласта, погасить "ЕГЭ 2012 Обществознание Тематич. тренир. задания" вращение, сменить ориентацию, направление движения и "Мы светлые эльфы" снова начать движение.

Это не "Бейссел" совсем так, поправил меня Ли "TeachPro Excel 2002" Пяо, пробираясь вниз по склону.

спросил тот с издевательской вежливостью.
