WEDNESDAY 13 Gets Re-animated To Aid Japan
April 3, 2011, 13 years ago
WEDNESDAY 13 is currently working on a few different projects to donate money to the people of Japan.
While on tour in Tokyo, Wednesday 13 / MURDERDOLLS were there for the magnitude 8.9 earthquake that rocked the country. It was the fifth most powerful earthquake recorded since 1900.
Commented Wednesday 13, “That was the scariest day of my life without a doubt. It's almost beyond words to explain what we felt and witnessed. Japan is my favorite country to visit, tour and I’m just truly, truly saddened by this tragedy.”
Wednesday 13 will putting up five auctions for custom made canvas prints (20”x32”). Each canvas print will be hand signed, numbered and will contain a song title on the back. Profit from these sales will go to Save The Children. Save the Children, which has worked in Japan since 1986, has an immediate goal of $5 million to launch longer-term recovery for children affected by Japan's March 11th earthquake and tsunami. Thanks to James Williams at Livewire Photography for donating the use of the photo.

Prior to the earthquake, Wednesday 13 was working on a special remix CD, Re-animated. Wednesday has taken five songs from his Skeletons CD and given them a new life. For the first month of release, Wednesday 13 will take a portion of all sales and donate to the American Red Cross. The American Red Cross is currently supporting and advising the Japanese Red Cross, which continues to assist the government in its response. Digital release date to be announced shortly.
