I would think US Dollars would be the way to go !! Does your postal service offer MO's ? ...If international members have a problem with sending their donations ?? Let me know and I may try accepting the money by Paypal and just writing a check from my account !!

Ok,I'll try and get a money order sorted out.

It's great that even members outside the USA are getting involved !! I believe St Judes does some work internationaly as well !!

im running really low on money but if i find cash ill b happilly sending it away.

I just have to tell you about one of the nicest things I've seen done on this forum !! After MLP member Cantu sent his donation in ! He heard Dizmal saying that money was tight at the moment so he instructed me to give Dizmal half the entries to the contest that he sent in !!! That is what this whole thing is about !!! I hope you don't mind that I made your act of generosity public but I figured it might show others the true spirit of this charity contest ! Way to go Cantu !

[BOBBO]

RULES...
Only MLP members may participate in this contest ! You are eligible to win all 3 prizes ! In the memo section of your check please write your MLP screename and how many entries you are entitled to !

All I can say is keep those donations coming !!

[drewbertca]

I truly wish I could pitch in...seeing as I've benefited from a similar Hospital (The Hospital For Sick Children in Toronto (refered to as Sick Kids Hospital))....however my current situation doesn't allow for me to donate I hope I will be able to before the end of the contest......I'd hate to miss out on this opportunity to help kids and have a chance to win an unprecedented piece of historical gear....

[MIDNIGHT]

awesome cause! wicked awesome contest!

CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR HOW THOSE SWEET LIL' BUGGERS WILL SOUND!!!!!!



it's gonna be great, i can feel it

sorry though i don't quite have the money right now -- just put in my payment for my plane ticket to new york AND my amplifier.. not to mention the bookstore i work at let me go already today.. .. nothin' new

i'll be watchin' out for this though

[BOBBO]

I realize it's right after the holidays and money may be tight for some ! Heck I'm not swimming in cash at the moment either ! We have over 2000 members here at MLP and if we could get even a good percentage to send in the minimum donation this would be a huge help to St Judes !

i dont no

Diz . I think it's one of the nicest gestures I've seen made by almost anyone !!! Let alone on an internet forum !! I think you should accept Cantu's generosity ( so as not to offend ) It really shows the true spirit of giving which is what this contest is all about !!

[dizmal]

ok ill accept the entries from cantu but only so i dont offend him at all, i still feel pretty bad taking them, and yes, its the nicest thing ive seen on internet forum, and possibly one of the best generosity ive seen

[BOBBO]

MLP'er please open your hearts and wallets for this great charity !! Not to mention for the cost of one chance in this contest you could really be helping save lives !! Imagine if you could save a life with just $10.00 !! If only 200 people of our 2000 members donate we'd be able to send St Judes $2000.00 !!Plus you have a chance at winning a set of pickups from two of the most tone inspired pickup winders to be found !!

Hello folks, sorry I haven't had time to get here lately. NAMM preperations have been killing us over the last couple months.
Finally, get to post here.

I'm looking forward to working with Will. I hope he'll be able to make an appearance at the NAMM show or breakfast on Saturday so we can go over some of the details on how we're going to work this out.

Anyways, we're in the process of packing up the car now...we're leaving today about 1pm...getting to Anaheim tomorrow so we can do a few things before the show...
