1978

What this guy did turned the electric guitar inside out, and is a huge part of what modern guitar is today.

Goal: $20K

Says a lot. Still stinging a ton this morning.

Talk about a sucker being born every second. UNICEF, Doctors Sans Frontiers or Holdsworth's funeral? Who the **** needs 20 grand for a ****ing funeral? **** them for even asking.

The average cost of a funeral is about $10K. Allan also left his kids some debt that they need to pay off. Like many other visionary musicians through the centuries he died dirt poor. Show some compasion you *******.

It's at $98.5K as of this morning. Obviously a lot of people are willing to help out as a thank you for all of the incredible music he shared over the past 40+ years. Intertestingly, the average donation is $40.

Idk if he's compasionless [sic] for pointing out that someone is possibly exploiting the grieving.

At least they could give out some goodies to those who give the most.
Picks, autographs, minor body parts...
