GoFundMe Launched For Man Left With Serious Head Injury Following Stage Dive Accident

A new GoFundMe has been launched for concertoger/local poster artist Jim Anderson (aka Yames Radek Andersven/GRIMGRIMGRIM). While attending a December 15th show at Preserving Underground in Pittsburgh, PA headlined by Cold World, Anderson suffered a serious head injury while stage diving during War Hungry‘s opening set.

Anderson took to social media to initially post the following of his health following the brain surgery that took place after the accident, while also showing off the gnarly injuries he sustained:

This new GoFundMe seeks to raise 26k USD for Anderson, with the following being offered of the campaign:

“On 12/15/24 Jim suffered a head injury at a show and ended up needing emergency brain surgery at Jefferson Hospital in Philadelphia, PA and now has 50 staples in his head. Jim is resting at the hospital now, and has been alert and FaceTiming with his friends, even giving a “GO BIRDS!” to end the call. Jim will need our help, now, however as he will be out of work both from his 9 – 5 and from vending.

If you’ve been around the Philly art/metal/hardcore/wrestling scene over the last 10+ years you’ve probably seen Jim around, if not you’ve definitely have seen his art on show fliers or at Philly sporting events on shirts. Jim has done a lot for a lot of people, and I hope we can do something big for him.

I’m starting the goal at 10k and will take it from there. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.”
