*THIS IS A PRE-ORDER ITEM AND EXPECTED TO SHIP IN LATE FEBRUARY. ANY ITEMS ORDERED WITH IT WILL SHIP TOGETHER*

"On Tuesday Jan 7 at 10:44 am I got a video text from Ler Lalonde with the words “Here we go!” in the caption. The video showed flames and a large plume of smoke coming down the hillside above his house.  

Since that moment Larry “Ler” Lalonde and his family have been on an emotional roller coaster that I can only imagine in my worst nightmares. He, and many others like him, lost their homes and possessions that very day. But Ler, being the positive happy-go-lucky fella that he is, has been surprisingly upbeat and has continued to be very professional and selfless in his commitments to Primus and the fans by moving forward with the process of auditioning a slew of drummers in the midst of trying to put his and his family’s lives back together. I am amazed by his resilience and his commitment to keep moving forward.  

In the spirit of Ler we have created a T-Shirt in his honor to help ease the burden of his loss as well as create a platform to donate to Raise Pali Campaign.  

Wear it in the spirit and support of a great guy, friend and father, Mr. Larry “Ler” Lalonde."

The Raise Pali Campaign funding goes towards Palisades Charter High School, in which: 

• 500+ students and 11 staff members lost their homes.
• 40% of the campus was damaged or destroyed.
• The impact of the disaster extends far beyond the immediate community. Our students come from 100+ ZIP codes across Los Angeles. Approximately 27% of our students are from low-income households and qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
  

At the moment, we don't know how much emergency funding will be available. Funds raised will be used to:

• Replace student devices lost in the fire and provide internet hot spots
• Repair technology infrastructure (the room that housed the school's servers and equipment was destroyed)
• Cover costs of a temporary alternative location
• Replace supplies and equipment, including basic classroom materials, computers, books, art supplies, cameras, etc.
• Pay for additional bus transportation for sports and competition teams (no games or events can happen on campus
