Master Tom and I were saddened by the recent news that a tsunami had hit Samoa. We stayed at Sinalei Resort last year, and we had a wonderful time on the islands. The resort was on the side of the island hit most soundly by the tsunami, with tragic losses, closing them down and destroying nearby villages.

Hellfire also feels a strong connection to Pasifikan culture, our beloved tribal beats played for many years at the club come from this part of the world. All this made us feel that it was time for us to give something back.

I am very proud of the patrons at our November 2009 Club Night who were generous in their donations to the Samoan Tsunami Appeal. Together we managed to raise an (uncanny) $666.00 which was deposited at the Bendigo Bank a few hours after we closed, proving conclusively that GOOD things come from BAD people.

Big shout-outs go to everyone who donated, but in particular to the owner of The Gaff who added $250 from the venue to our bucket, and to Barb who bared her breasts to encourage donations as she wielded our mighty bucket.
