    According to the Andrew Wood FB page, there's a Mother Love Bone re-issue due in October, with 2 previously unreleased tracks included. I've no idea what amount of units would shift, but surely some of the revenue generated from this would find it's way to Andrew Wood's estate, i.e. to Toni?
    At least there's another possible 'new' income source to help her out.
    While they're at it, why not officially release some of the many demos that have been circulating for years, maybe clean them up and sequence them properly? I'm sure Andy would have no issue with that if it was ultimately going to help his Mum.

    Good for those guys helping out a friend.
    I feel like us fans are always looking for ways to thank them and im sure they'd rather someone donate 10 or 20 bucks or whatever than buy another hoodie, poster, wristband etc.

    Now Jeff and Stone- I don't need an autographed poster, so I'm not gonna be the guy to bid on those, but what's the amount the forum needs to donate to get a dirty frank this tour ;) ?

    I don't get the sense that Stone or Jeff or the band are making any sort of real push here. To me it says that Stone and Jeff feel a connection to Andy and his Mom so they felt like they wanted to contribute to help her out. I think they also realize that there may be many people out in their community that have a connection to Andy and Motherlovebone and that they would want to give back because they've been impacted. If there are people that would feel good about giving back to a person or band that has impacted them that would not otherwise know without Stone putting it out there than that would be a missed opportunity on both sides if Stone didn't say anything.

    some good news from this month's 10c newsletter:
    We’re psyched to announce that our beloved Toni Wood (Andy’s mom) will soon be in her new home! The poster and guitar auctions plus your donations to Toni’s Go Fund Me Account raised around $35k. And Stone, Jeff, Ed and their manager made personal donations in the amount of 40k.

    In the coming weeks, we’ll help Toni demolish and properly dispose of the old home and set up her new one! We promise to post photos once she’s all moved in. A huge thank you from Toni and the band for everyone’s support! #PJActivism

    Yes, really great news! I would love to help plant flowers, demo, move, or something for her.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    It's a win , win situation,I purchased at auction through 10c two PJ signed posters,one for me and one for my son,we always go to PJ and ED concerts together here in Australia and have on every tour since 2003.
    I am grateful my hard earned goes to somebody in need and in return we get some treasured item's that will be ours for a lifetime.
