Peter Baltes, former ACCEPT bassist and current member of U.D.O., has started a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the costs of repairing his home in Nokomis, Florida, after it was damaged by Hurricane Milton.
In the message shared on GoFundMe page, Baltes wrote: “Hurricane Milton hit my area head on while I was still on tour. My wife and the cats where in a shelter with friends. I was able to fly out straight after the last show. I thank God that our family was spared. Many others were not that fortunate. The house has damage[d] but it can be repaired. The cage and concrete floor are busted and need to be replaced. Of course not covered by insurance. We would appreciate if you could help.”
On his Facebook page, Peter added: “Hi everybody, it’s been 5 days since I got home from the US Tour. Johanna and I have been working relentless to clean everything up. Milton hit us straight on. Most of the damage is contained to the back of the house. It will be repaired. But the insurance company does not cover any of it. Johanna & I would appreciate it very much if you guys could help out.”
