Send Me Your Money
Hi. My name is Chris Burden. My address is 823 Ocean Front Walk, Venice, California, 90291. I can’t legally do this but let’s imagine that I asked everybody who’s listening tonight to send me money. Just, to send it directly to me. It would be such a small sacrifice for all of you and it could really do something for me. If you could just send money directly to me: Chris Burden, 823 Ocean Front Walk, Venice, California, 90291. Over the years I’ve done a number of things for you people out there in the public.
