SAVE MIKE MCHUGH!
Donation protected
Hello everyone, I'm putting this gofundme together for your friend, Mike McHugh. Mike has recently become homeless after recovering from his second back surgery and now faces a third after slipping and falling one day in the last few weeks. We're trying to gather funds to get him a van to drive, live in, etc. We're also trying to get him back into a recording studio with his unique equipment and skill set. Since 2012 he hasn't had a home for his Dan Flickinger board after the closing of The Distillery. He's trying to remain in good spirits but I worry that without our help he could perish. If you're not familiar with Mike McHugh and his work, look at this link: https://www.discogs.com/artist/521515-Mike-McHugh
He's made some amazing albums in the old studio over the years. Lets all work to get him back on his feet, and back to recording music the way he should be. This was in 2011 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP14as_2fOk
All of the money will go directly towards helping Mike get a van, start the studio, pay the rent, bills, and other associated costs.
He has also expressed interest in renting the space and equipment to other producers, engineers and artists.
Thanks to all of you!!! Be a part of music history and help Mike get back to his happy place and off the streets.
THANK YOU!!!
And just to keep things clear and transparent I'll add that i'm gonna control the funds as we go along to make sure they're going directly towards the things previously stated and not into anything else. I'll make sure and provide documentation as we progress after raising the funds. Let me know if you have any questions!
I'm Klee Van Hamersveld, I've known Mike for about a decade and have been around to watch a downward spiral that has to stop now. This is definitely rock bottom. I've done what I can to keep the opportunistic vultures at bay in regards to his equipment and now it's time to get it all back into a studio and get him working again! You're all helping him come out of a serious state of depression and hopelessness. You're all, in his words, "saving my life, thank you!"
