On April 14th 2013, Deftones bassist Chi Cheng succumbed to injuries sustained from a car accident back in 2008. Following the tragedy, Deftones UK publicist Emma Van Duyts teamed up with One Love For Chi in order to raise money for Chi’s charity, Journey For Jessica.
Em took a canvas bag on tour for a month, asking each band she met to add their signature. This saw the likes of The Bronx, letlive., You Me At Six, Gallows and former band mates Deftones adding their names to the bag.
Time also saw the band expand with heaps of goodies, including:
– The entire Deftones back catalogue on CD
– A drum skin signed by Deftones
– Signed limited edition ‘Covers’ vinyl
– VIP Reading/Leeds Festival Tickets
– VIP tickets to Vans Warped Tour UK
– A signed Deftones setlist
– A signed Bronx setlist
– A selection of used drumsticks from the bands (Deftones, The Bronx, letlive.)
– A 1 year subscription to Rock Sound magazine
– A 1 year subscription to Kerrang! magazine
– A limited edition Gaslight Anthem boxset and screen print poster
– Swag from Converse, Johnny Cupcakes, Rebel 8, Brixton and The Hundreds and much, much more.
To be in with a chance of getting your hands on all of this stuff, and to support the charity, simply head over to One Love For Chi and donate a minimum of $1, adding “EmsBag” into the Donation Box. The generous winner will then be chosen at random on the 9th August.
