The Fad in van accident
Long Island–based ska/punk act The Fad were recently involved in a van accident. The band reported:
At 3:30am Saturday morning, we lost control of our van
on Interstate 76 heading east. The entire highway was
a sheet of ice, we slid into the median, spun 180
degrees and flipped our van and trailer. Everyone was
ok for the most part. John landed on his head and hurt
his neck a little. We put everything we had into this
tour and we just lost it all. The van, trailer, and
our equipment is all we own. We still have no clue if
our equipment will work when we get home. We are just
happy to be alive. If you would like to help us out
and have a paypal account, please donate to
rickybling@mac.comany amount would be appreciated. hopefully we can take
care of our debts and get back out on the road sooner
than later. thank you so much for the support!
The band is still planning to make their December shows in Richmond, VA and Westfield, NJ with Patent Pending and Murphys Kids. The band signed to Bankshot! Records earlier this year.
