Lead singer for So Cal punk-pop band Unwritten Law, Scott Russo, lost his family home to a fire late in the evening of Thursday, February 5th 2009. Russo, his parents, his two young sons, and his daughter Cailin all shared the San Diego home. Although no family members were injured, the family lost every piece of their belongings and their beloved pets.
The group is currently seeking items for donation to be auctioned off to help raise money for the Unwritten Law front man, after his family's San Diego home burned to the ground last month. Deadline for donated items is March 31st, 2009 and the online auctions will be launched in April through Lyman's Warped Tour site and the Scott Russo Family Foundation. Items can be sent to:
