A vision that has become a part of us

[Zephyer]

Hey guys, let’s not let all the excitement about the G make us forget Artemiy needs help to keep this site running and free of advertisements.

His work has helped many of us, so let’s take a quick break from all the excitement and help him help us. Just click on the big Roland clan 5th Anniversary link at the top left of the screen.

Artemiy wants to shutdown donations April 30th today is the 29th let’s not have it said that as much as he comes Through for us, we could not do the same.

Everyone that can, please help water the tree whose fruit nourishes us so well. If you can’t give, tell someone that can.

Thanks Guys, play on!!!

Thank you very much for your kindness, Zephyer! I would like to note that regardless of any funding, you'll never see ads over here, although the whole site is a freaking huge Roland ad )) Quick money may be nice (sometimes I do byte my fingers...), but it's selling your soul to the devil.

BTW, I'll be prolonging the fund gathering campaign for a couple more weeks so we can hopefully gather as much as planned.

Thanks again to all of you!

we could decide to write to Roland and tell them to pay Art for his support, otherwise we boycott all [deleted by Secret Roland Agent].

ok i know most ppl wont agree, but it might help.

Well put Zephyer, I couldn't have said it better myself.

With the deadline being pushed back, I'll try to donate what I can. Peace.

[Artemiy]

achyeboah, I would never want Roland to sponsor this site*. The whole thing about it is that we're independent, and even though we are the opposite of many music technology forums on the web, I would still like things stay as they are. BTW, Roland does help us in many ways, in case you didn't know. Roland US links to us, and many of Roland product specialists tell people about Roland Clan.

* but if they say they want to buy it out for like $100k, I won't mind. Yes, I said I don't want to sell my soul to the devil, but I didn't say I won't sell out to Roland LOL

No problem tzoid I guess I did get a little carried away sorry if it caused any inconvenience.

But it’s easy to get carried away when Artemiy, You and the rest of the staff does such a great job for us all, Thank you.

I’m so proud to be a part of this community; our members give so much and so freely of themselves. whither it be insight on how to work that synthesizer, info on new gear, or just to crack a joke. The members here always come through.

Artemiy has given us a tool to help one another, but he also gave us a voice Roland will hear. Let’s keep our voice strong.

Each member of a choir gives a little to what will become a powerful sound.

So proud of us! Thanks Guys

So if I donate $20. US. Will I get 4 tickets ?
or is it one ticket per donation regadless of the amount?

[Artemiy]

sonxpro, 1 ticket for each $5, so yes, $20 is 4 tickets.

[Zephyer]
