What be-mag seems to do… and what be-mag actually do.. are wayyyy different.
As much of all of us are pieces of shit at times im pretty sure NONE of us would like to see anything similar happen to ANYONE on here.

With the exception of mamba I wholeheartedly agree, from what I've gathered this dude Sean seems like the kind of guy I would never want to hang out with but that doesn't mean I can't sympathize with his situation. Unfortunately I am in no position to offer charity to anyone right now or I would kick him down a few bucks.Originally Posted by KILLGORE
Adam, I sent the address to you on March 9th, last Friday. I just sent it again right now.
Sean's a little out there, but he's a nice kid who is in over his head. I'd love to meet him in person once he gets back on his feet.
I love kids. They're short, highly emotional people who don't know anything. They rely on their creativity and imagination to get by in the world. A world, I might add, filled with giants. Amazing feat.
If he needs frames, I have brand new Valo frames just sitting here Id be happy to send him. If somebody can PM me the address and who to send it to.

If he wants to come to az, I can hook him up. best of luck, watched him skate growing up. pretty sad to see him on the streets. is there a paypal we can donate?
Yeah dude, right here:

I reviewed this thingy for Arena: It's great, but all the demo songs sound like Photek or someone & I have to confess that i struggled to make a tune that didn't either.
The best program to use is an inpatient treatment program. This is a program that is offered by most Alcohol Rehabilitation Arizona centers.
did he get the wheel hookup already? I'm about to send out a package and wasn't sure if I should still include some wheels.
Killgore said that he did not send wheels, so if you can, go for it. How many are you thinking? Are they from your Face stash?
I am going to send him a pair of new Salomon frames and whatever bearings I have, so maybe that can get him closer to a flat setup.

Dropped off a couple of packages this week for Sean. 1 from Bryan and 1 from Stephan. Thanks dudes! All he could say was "hell yeh" over and over
Package 1 had a hoodie, beanie, some toiletries and a couple magazines. Package 2 had some skates. With (please don't shoot me if I use the wrong terms :-p) freestyle frames. No extra wheels or anything. I'm not sure is he needs a tool to switch stuff out, but if anyone is planning on sending over wheels/bearings or anything, a small multi-tool might be helpful.
Update on his passport situation- his stuff has actually been out of reach for a few days because it was locked in a friend's mom's house who went away for a few days. He has access to it again, so I told him to hit me up tomorrow with updates after he calls.
Sean asked me to send his donation money to Robert. He said that he's been in a motel for 5 days, and when I asked if he was planning on getting his passport he said that a friend of his was in a similar situation and would be helping him with his passport needs.
So, I don't know if he's really going to pursue his passport or if he's just gotten used to staying in a motel and wants to prolong it as long as possible.
I'm sending his money, but this is where I need to say that if anyone else wants to donate any money, you'll need to send it to Robert Duff at The Voices Among Us.
I don't think that I can be of any more assistance to Sean. I've given him all of his options and he knows what he needs to do, it's just up to him to do it.
Thanks go out to everyone who has donated anything. Your help is much appreciated!

Killgore, just got your epic box of shirts. Those were awesome, man. Not going to lie, I was peepin' to see if there were any in my size :-p
Anyways, Sean was super super appreciative. He had a huge grin on his face, which he still had while flying his sign when I saw him on my way out.
tell him to fly 'sofa king'
So why can't anybody give him a place where to sleep? even a garage or garden?
Sick glad the box arrived and he was happy! Hopefully things turn around for sean soon

Whoops, sorry to welch on sending the mags, but I realized that shipping my entire collection of DB mags would be expensive and impractical. I've been a little tight on cash, but I think it might be better to just donate the money I would've used to ship instead so he can use it on food and stuff. Is Vincent still taking PayPal donations?
Just send it to the PayPal link above, please.

I spoke to Sean not too long ago and he was in need of sneakers size 10.5 since his has holes in the ones he has currently. If anyone is a 10.5 and has a pair they can spare it will gladly be appreciated. If worse comes to worse he said he may just pick up a cheap pair at Payless from Be-Mag's generous donations.
Its Sad to hear about skate shak seans situation, why did his dad kick him out does anybody know? And if he has any plans of moving back to the Uk when he gets back on his feet/skates. I remember him from years back he was always at the Vert-X skatepark in Sunderland. We only knew him as skate shak Sean and turkey boy back in the day. Till recently I started skating again and wondered if Sean still skated, Hurd he went pro in America, turns out that's true then a week later I hear he's homeless. How does that work out! Damnnn.. bad times
