Omar & The Howlers: Benefit CD-R for Lyn Dykes



Omar & The Howlers: Benefit CD-R for Lyn Dykes

When Omar Dykes returned back home to Austin, after his European tour in late spring 2004, his 44 year old wife Lyn - Mom of Oma's 8 year young son Jake - was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Everyone knows how bad the situation is in the USA regarding social and medical care, insurances pay for a minimum only. Incoming bills for Lyns's medicine, doctors and hospital quickly grew bigger than Omar, that is why Gabi Schwanke from Germany (webmistress of the official Oma website) decided not only to send good thoughts, hope and best wishes to Lyn, but also to do something to raise money for the Dykes family.

She released a CD-R with 9 exclusive live tracks & 2 studio tracks. The title is "Live in Germany, Oberhausen (May 1998)." It is available from Gabi, please visit her website for details:

All proceeds of this private support project go to the Lyn Dykes Fund in Austin, TX.
