Re: Pat Martino Fund #PatMartino

I am sorry, but this just needs to be said. What a shame upon the United States. It's starting to seem like we aren't even part of the "civilized world" any more. When we reduce our great artists to begging to ensure corporate profits we need to rediscover our soul. Although I intend to try to help one of my guitar heroes, I really wish that the poor weren't the ones that need to take care of the poor.

Azzara) has not worked since November 2018 due to severe health issues and his ability to keep financially afloat has been greatly impacted by his current disabilities. This legendary artist from Philadelphia has exhausted his savings and sees no other options before him other than to appeal to the larger community for help. He needs your donations and your good will to keep his household intact and pay medical bills while he concentrates on getting healthy. -A ? -- Alisdair MacRae Birch Guitarist/Bassist/Educator/Arranger
