The Last Hurrah

Update #9 · Aug 18, 2011 · 1 comment

With less than a day left on the campaign, it looks like we are going out at 105+% funded thanks to over two hundred backers. Your support means a tremendous amount to all of us who organize the festival and to all of the bands who you have personally helped to bring to HONK! 

There are many more bands slated to come to HONK! this year than we've announced in this series of updates. I could keep going with these sneak preview updates for quite some time because we have so many great bands on the way, but I don't want bother the very people who are making their trip possible with even more email. Very soon the full listing will be posted to www.honkfest.org.  In the meantime, I hope you'll stay in touch with us via Twitter (@honkfest), Facebook, and our mailing list

Thanks for everything.

    Peace and loud,
         David N. Blank-Edelman, on behalf of the HONK! organizing committee.

P.S. I'll be contacting the backers who requested rewards to get the information I need to get those much deserved thank-you gifts in the mail. Please be sure to respond to the messages Kickstarter will be sending you so I can get them out as quickly as possible. Thanks!
