Saludos, en esta ocasión pongo una encarecida súplica para todas las personas que quieran y estén en posibilidad de ayudar a una de las bandas más fenomenales que he podido conocer y ver en vivo, les hablo de DECAPITATED.
Como muchos de ustedes sabrán el año pasado la banda tuvo un trágico accidente donde lamentablemente Vitek, el talentoso baterista de la banda, perdió la vida, además de que el vocalista, Covan, quedó muy lastimado y ha estado sufriendo un largo y tortuoso proceso de recuperación, por lo cual se han estado haciendo esfuerzos muy grandes de parte de los fans y la comunidad metalera de varias partes del mundo para poder ayudar de alguna forma a que la recuperación de Covan sea más rápida. Aquí les dejo la información de cómo pueden ayudar los que así lo deseen y tengan oportunidad, es tomada literalmente del myspace de la banda. En verdad espero que puedan ayudar de alguna forma.
COVAN NEEDS OUR HELP - Alina Squeak press release
As most everyone knows, it has been just over a year since the tragic bus accident that ultimately took the life of Vitek, drummer of Decapitated, and seriously injured their singer, Covan. The families of Vitek and Covan wish to express deep gratitude to everyone for their thoughts, prayers, funny stories, and donations sent to them during this last very difficult year.
However, Covan is still going through a long and difficult recovery, and the family would once again ask for you to look into your heart and possibly send donations. It is INCREDIBLY expensive for all the round-the-clock medical care, the doctors, the nurses, the therapy, the medicine, etc. Most of you could also understand that, since he is also in Poland, it is even more expensive than it would be in the US or most other parts of Europe. His care and recovery is ongoing and he is slowly showing some progress, but it will be quite a bit of time before he is completely better. Some people may think that, although they would like to help, that they have nothing to give… but in truth, if every one person out there that thought this could donate even just $1, that amount will significantly multiply and make a huge difference!
If anyone out there would like to help, there are three ways you can do that. All the old paypal donation information has been=2
0shut down a while ago, so please make note of the NEW address and account numbers!
If you are INSIDE POLAND ONLY, please use the following info:
You can donate to the POLISH paypal address of: mstasto@yahoo.com
OR you can put it directly into his bank account:
Recipient's Name: Adrian Kowanek
Account Number: 05 1240 1431 1111 0000 0999 2870
Bank Swift Code: PKOPPLPW
Bank Name: PEKAO I O. Krakow
Bank Address: Rynek Glowny 31, 31-010 Kraków, Poland
Please add the word "Covan" as the bank transfer description.
If you are OUTSIDE OF POLAND (Europe, Asia, South America, North America, etc.), please use the following info:
You can donate to the AMERICAN paypal account address of: decapitatedusa@yahoo.com
OR you can put it directly into the American bank account listed below:
Recipient Name: Alina M. Hernes
Account Number: 3582102302
Bank Name: Washington Mutual
Bank Address: 1605 S. Winchester Blvd., Campbell, CA=2
095008 USA
Be assured that this bank account was opened strictly for donations to Covan only, and all money will go directly to Covan. At Washington Mutual, it does not cost me any fees to transfer money to a Polish bank account or from paypal to the bank account, so that is why I made a separate account for him here.
If you go over
to the myspace profile at www.myspace.com/decapitated , you will also see a bunch of merchandise items for sale, in which all the money raised from the sale of those items will go directly to Covan's care. I will tell you that the Decapitated "Remembrance" shirt is one of the best quality shirts that I own and that the quality is completely top-notch. As well, keep an eye out in the next few days, as we will be making announcements about items that we will be auctioning off to benefit Covan, including a guitar graciously donated from Peter from the almighty VADER!
If you could please help us spread the word, we would be extremely grateful for the help. Please check back for periodic updates on Covan. Thank you so much!
