"Greetings Friends,It has been a very exciting month for the Bob Moog Foundation! As we continue build our organizational and financial base, we are gaining the support of many different and diverse groups.
Let me first thank Sound Tribe Sector Nine (STS9), a rockin' jam band, who donated a portion of their ticket sales from their April 27 show at Asheville’s Thomas Wolfe Auditorium to The Moog Foundation. Ever the socially-conscious group of guys, STS9's donation go to support the foundation’s outreach program which will bring
electronic music to disadvantaged kids. We are thrilled and grateful to have STS9’s support--thanks guys!On the other end of the musical spectrum, the Asheville Symphony Orchestra is dedicating their May 19 concert to Dad. Along with Haydn and Milhaud, the orchestra will be performing Gustav Holst’s “Planets”, using six Moog Little Phatty Synthesizers in the final movement. Innovation and creativity link these three composers, who were known for pushing the musical boundaries of their day. A fitting tribute to Dad, without a doubt.
In other news, we are excited to announce that Moog Foundation Gear is on our website! We are now offering Foundation T-shirts and bumper stickers as a free gift when you donate. Our classy t-shirts are very cool and have a lot of personal touches. The concept came from my sister Renee, the design was created by Jenny Greer of SoundMindMedia, who also designed our logo. The pocket on the t-shirt has a special meaning of its own. To find out what it is, check it out on our “Foundation Gear”! Please show your support by donating today and wearing this great shirt!!!
Get your Moog on.

Executive Director"
