Raising money to help replace the DJ Equipment that jumped out of the back of a golf cart that was taking me from my campsite to my set at electric forest. The ride was bumpy and my backpack jumped out on the ride.

I use both phase and needles while performing because I like to use vinyl I have collected for scratching as well as digital vinyl for performing. This is why I use the DJM-S9 so I can use the switch that allows you to switch between Phono and Line options on the fly while performing.
These funds will be used to buy and replace everything that was in my Odyssey Mixer bag and the bag itself so I can continue playing my sets. I'll be working as hard as I can regardless to get all these items back, but I'm playing 4 times in the next 4 weeks at different festivals across the country so I'm trying to get my equipment back as fast as possible so I can stay on track.
There is a black Serato control vinyl signed by Jon1st, a DMC champion, in the bag as well.
I had a plan with transportation to get picked up at 11:20 from the vendor/sponsor campgrounds to make it to my set at 12:00. I waited patiently and after being told over and over that I'd be picked up in 10 minutes to finally get picked up at 12:00. So I got picked up at the time I was supposed to start playing. Due to the circumstances, we were in a rush, so I put all my equipment (two turntables in solo flight cases and an Odyssey DJ Backpack with my Pioneer DJM-S9 Mixer in it) into the back of the golf cart. This golf cart was one of those golf carts that has a small truck bed in the back and then two seats in the front. After putting my equipment in the golf cart I hopped up front and then we zoomed as fast as we could to the Renegade stage. I hopped off the cart and went to grab my equipment and that's when I noticed that my backpack was not in the cart. Soooo the bumpy ride must have influenced the backpack to hop right out of the golf cart and go on its own adventure causing me to miss my set, haha. I asked transportation to retrace the path we took to double check for the backpack and also check camp in case I accidently forgot it, so we went back to camp then back to the renegade stage and realized that it was gone. After checking with lost and found multiple times I have accepted the fact that it is gone and I'm going to have to buy all new equipment.
Thank you to anyone that has read this far and any support in this endeavor is very much appreciated.
Much Love, phLo
