Levon Helm has put one of his drum kits up for grabs to help raise money to cover medical expenses for fellow drummer Richie Hayward. The Little Feat member is battling liver cancer. The illness has sidelined Hayward for several months. (story) The autographed sunburst Yamaha kit used by the former drummer for the Band, himself a cancer survivor, includes bass, snare, rack and floor toms, a trio of Zildjian cymbals, and all the hardware and cases. 500 tickets for a May 22 drawing are available through the Levon Helm web site.
