Update #3: T-Shirts are HERE!

Posted on April 20, 2010

With only 8 hours to go, we thought we'd show you what just arrived in The Tank offices... Bent T-shirts are here and they are ADORABLE! For your donation of $25, we'll set one of these aside just for you! We only need 16 more people at that level to make it to our goal.

I just couldn't wait to put one on and take a gratuitous phone picture, and neither will you:

Update #2: No Volcano's Going to Get Us Down!

Posted on April 20, 2010

So, you may have heard about this giant cloud of ash that's descended over the flight path to NYC from Europe-- Bent Fest 2009 alum and UK native Stu Smith sure has... and he's not going to be able to get here for his performance on Friday. BUT NEVER FEAR! Local heroes Burnkit 2600 have stepped in to take Threep's place this Friday.

Even though we'll miss Stu's return to the Festival, we're super excited to have Burnkit back at this year's Bent Festival! And... Threep has recorded a special set JUST for the occasion which we'll be screening at the Festival-- so you get an EXTRA band AND you still get to see what Threep has prepared for this year's Bent Fest.

We're now just 20 people at the $25 level away from making our goal-- there's only 13 hours to go, though, so please get the word out as we count down.

With your help, we can do this!

Update #1: We're Almost There!

Posted on April 19, 2010

We've only got 36 hours to go, but we're this close to meeting our goal. To put it in context, we only need 37 more people to donate at the $25 level* to make this happen-- please, if you haven't given yet, help us out this Monday morning by donating whatever you can.

If you have donated, or you can't donate, please tell just two people you think would donate to this cause about it.

For those who donate at the $25 level, you'll get a t-shirt with this wicked design:

We're also almost to opening night! Thursday is going to be a TON of fun, and we hope you can all join us at 7:30 when we open up the gallery. There will be a lot of art installations and then we'll be prepared to rock your face off with some fantastic performances starting at 8:00. Make sure and get there early for FREE BEER from 7:30 - 8:00!

If you haven't gotten tickets yet, you can purchase festival passes here and single day tickets here. We'll see you this weekend!

*Note: For those who donate at the $25 level, you'll get a t-shirt with this wicked design:
