Paper and Plastick has launched a 40-song compilation to benefit longtime publicist Rey Roldan. Roldan suffered a catastrophic house fire that caused thousands of dollars in personal property damage, The compilation features a number of bands from a wide range of labels and is being sold for a minimum donation of $1. Paper & Plastick label boss and Less Than Jake drummer Vinnie Fiorello commented:
Rey is a friend who works in music and for that reason, getting together this benefit was the most logical thing we could do, Rey has been an ally with everything I've been doing in music for a while now, so when I heard about the fire, I figured, 'What better way to help Rey that by using what he has given himself to for almost two decades?' And that's music.
Artists featured on the comp. include Candy Hearts,

Direct Hit!,
Great Cynics,
Have Nots,

Less Than Jake,
MC Lars,

My tattoo artist lost everything in a house fire a couple of weeks ago. Luckily he, his girlfriend and their 2 year daughter made it out ok. There is a benefit show for them next week (11/17) at Smalls in Hamtramack (basically Detroit) with Hellmouth and a few other friends bands playing.
