Funding Successful

This project successfully raised its funding goal on September 9, 2011.

Pledge $1 or more Pledge $1 or more

5 Backers

Thank you!

Pledge $10 or more Pledge $10 or more

34 Backers

Those who donate at least $10 will receive a Kickstarter-only 1" Roboto pin that you can wear with pride, as well as a special hand-screened "domo arigato" aka "thank you" screenprint designed and printed by Roboto members.

Pledge $30 or more Pledge $30 or more

57 Backers

With a contribution of at least $30, you will get the pin and the print, as well as a stainless steel Roboto water bottle to help you stay hydrated at those steamy hot punk rock shows.

Pledge $60 or more Pledge $60 or more

37 Backers

With a contribution of at least $60, you will get the pin and the print, as well as a copy of the forthcoming book "Building A Better Robot: Ten Years of the Mr. Roboto Project". This book is a narrative of Roboto's first ten years including photographs and stories from members of the community. The book is scheduled to be published in the fall of 2011.

Pledge $100 or more Pledge $100 or more

25 Backers

Donate at least $100 to the cause and you will get the "thank you" print and the book...and you'll also get invited to a special pre-opening party. This party will be planned for before our first official show (date to be determined based on construction progress, likely sometime in the 2nd half of September) and will include food, live music and a chance to mingle with Roboto members and other Kickstarter backers.

Pledge $500 or more Pledge $500 or more

1 Backer

At this level you will definitely get a "thank you" print and a copy of the book. We'll also be inviting you to the pre-opening party. But we really need to do something special for those of you who donate at this level. If you donate $500 or more, the collective members of the Roboto Interim Board of Directors will write and record a song for you. You get to choose the song title or topic (we reserve the right to reject inappropriate titles/topics). We would love nothing more than to be forced into writing an entire album's worth of material, so please consider donating at this level.

The Mr. Roboto Project is a cooperatively run music and art space located at 5106 Penn Ave in Pittsburgh, PA. The aim of the space is to provide a safe, comfortable outlet for DIY (do it yourself) music, art and culture. For over 10 years, Roboto existed in a storefront in Wilkinsburg, but that location closed in 2010. Our new space, currently under renovation, is slated to open in fall of 2011 in the Penn Ave Arts Corridor.
