When a fellow musician falls on hard times you can either sit back and do nothing or use your talents to help pick the fallen comrade back up.

When the singer fell on hard times recently after an accidental fire torched his home, friends gathered to help. ... Click "Read More" below.
Bootsey is a longtime veteran of the Detroit music scene. He started out in the legendary but short-lived Ramrods (on drums!) before fronting his own bands, most recently performing as frontman for The Lovemasters. Bootsey's brand of flash and trash rock n'roll has captivated audiences for decades. Always backed by some of the finest local musicians, Bootsey and the boys brought raw power to every show. When the singer fell on hard times recently and after an accidental fire torched his home, friends gathered to help.
