![]() I have to step in here. I am Beth Schuldiner, Chuck's sister. O was at the New York show and all of the guys were UNBELIEVABLE!!!! AND, so were the fans! NO ONE can take this away from them!
Ian and Anton of Sick Drummer approached us; my family and Eric with this idea to do a small tour and aside from getting the band members together, a percentage of the proceeds would benefit the Charity, Sweet Relief; a charity which helps musicians and who did in fact help Chuck. I was initially concerned, as "benefits" have been done in Chuck's name before, while Chuck was alive and still struggling to survive and the monies were stolen. I was assured by many that this would not and could not happen. You be the judges" Fact-Our mother, Jane, is contacted each and every day by fans who have to this day NOT received refunds for cancelled shows. Fact: The charity, Sweet Relief has received NOTHING!!! Not ONE CENT! And, the charity's name was used in ALL advertising of the DTA tour; the fans, many of them, wrote to me prior to the show stating that they were thrilled to be a part of the show and that some of their money was going to help this charity. Fact-Ian and Anton (Sick Drummer) have still given NO FULL ACCOUNTING of the tour which was required of them on their own contract signed by them! Fact-all anyone has are promissory notes signed by them with a promise to pay the charity????!!! Fact-None of the band members were involved in collecting money or disbursing any money-they simply played and played their asses off they did! Chuck would have been both AMAZED and so very proud of ALL of them! Fact-Eric Greif went on the tour, but was REFUSED open access to see the accounting and OVER & OVER again was reassured by Ian and Anton that all was well. ONLY Ian and Anto had access to the money and the accounting. Again-all of you be the judge. Sold out shows-No money for the charity. Mmmm.... I don't know who "Project genesis" on this forum is, but I can only assume he is either mislead OR a party to Ian and Anton somehow. There must be laws against this and I have contacted the fraud department of the New York Attorney general's office ![]() ![]() With Kind Regards, Beth Schuldiner |

I did read what Project Genesis wrote - 'that Sickdrummer is handling it correctly as professionals' - and I was wondering under what circumstances a company can enter into contracts and then breach them all? THAT's professional? The musicians are all owed money. The crew are all owed money. We are owed money. The charity are owed money. The booking agency is owed money. THAT's professional? There hasn't even been an apology, just a statement saying that the five shows just didn't make quite enough money for their tastes. I don't think it is crying on the internet to alert everyone to this = $150K taken in yet $100K owed. You do the math! ;)

Hi Beth, cheers from Brazil.
Your brother was a legend. I am one of the fans that still feels like he's still here, through his awesome music. So apparently those fuckers did not contact you or Eric to explain the situation. pieces of shit. As you said, you were aware of the risks. Its an absolute shame what happened. Those guys should be prosecuted no matter what their version of the whole thing is, Fuck them hard. |

Haha, oh man. This thread keeps on giving. It doesn´t matter if the sickdrummer guys did this in good will - it seems they handled it disastrously. I´d be pissed.

Everyone, to quote them, a "third party" received the money. Fuck these lying sacks of shit.

![]() ![]() ![]() That laugh aside though, this is really, really fucking shitty of SickDrummer to pull a stunt like this, especially when half of those musicians aren't really in super successful bands now days and struggle to make a living just like any other person. It's even worse when you toss Sweet Relief into the mix. Really sad :/ |

I love how I hear about this a few times a week from the other parties and Sick Drummer has only managed to release one dodgy ass statement.
