    Story

    Ok here goes... So most of you Boomin fans will know that we are a DIY band. Been this way for over 10 years now and to use a site like this is out of sorts for us, we don't know if it's the right thing to do but we really have currently hit a brick wall financially.

    Don't get us wrong, we've had tons of help along the way which we will not forget and to name a few Symphony Music, Wigan for our equipment needs. Mark Wainwright at Alien Sound for helping with recordings & Erica at Bigfoot Events, for helping fill our diary year in year out.
    Not to mention all the landlords who've looked after us these years and given us repeat bookings whilst keeping us topped up with red bull, beer and whiskey. And the odd bit of grub (Jon - Rose and Bowl)
    But our biggest saviours over the years has always been YOU the fans!!! Every time you have bought our albums, t.shirts, gig tickets etc.. That has kept us on the road! As they say every little helps and it really does.

    Anyway the reason for doing this! As many of you know vehicles are a pain! but this past 12 months has been non stop breakdowns/repair bills/van rentals and more breakdowns. Just 2 months ago we spent nearly £600 fixing a problem that never went away. Then in November we was told our turbo needed changing. That came at a cost of £800+ and then we broke down again 5 weeks ago and after being in the garage all this time, this morning we were told it's going to cost us around £2000 to get our van back AND we still need to book it in for an oil change and to fix a radiator problem. So yeah these bills have completely wiped out any earnings we was going to have over the December period. And these earnings are usually used to cover living costs of January because every entertainer knows how hard January can be for gigs/events.

    We don't want to ask for much but if you could help even just a little bit towards our bills it would be an amazing weight off our shoulders.

    Thanks
    Edd, Adam & Rory

      So so overwhelmed to have reached the goal so quickly! Thanks to each and every one of you, we honestly did not expect this kind of support.. so we got the van back on the 26th and unbelievably it had broken down again by the 29th. It's been in the garage ever since, we've been assured there won't be any more costs (I personally don't believe that) anyway you lot honestly got us out of a massive hole over Christmas so thank you once again... your all awesome!!! Love and Rockin Edd, Adam and Rory XXX
