Update #7 · May 3, 2012 · comment

Wow, what a ride. The Kickstarter Campaign for WMC Fest 2012 is finally coming to a close and I want to give you a heartfelt thank you for pushing us over our $7,000 goal. In fact, you guys pushed us to almost $9,000 in just one month. To me, that shows that you really care about us making the fest better each and every year. And this year it definitely will be. This will help us afford to have two music stages, a brand new dedicated music venue with room for bands and artists to sell their merch (it's also much closer to other venues than last year), professional sound and lighting, a mobile app, and a street team platform. 

We have one day to go, and I am totally happy where we are at. I'm not going to ask for more, you did it. If you want to pledge or promote, that's cool. Just know that I'm happy that we met our goal and that's all I can ask for!

There is one thing though, since the early-bird ticket price expired on Eventbrite last week, Kickstarter remains the cheapest option to purchase your fest passes. For $50 you get the full weekend pass, Bronze Backer status on the website, $45 worth of Arsenal products from Go Media, and some WMC stickers and buttons, not to mention no Eventbrite fees! If you or your friends haven't bought a ticket yet, tell them they have ONE DAY LEFT to get them at this low price! 

Thanks again! After today, I'll start sending out the rewards and get everyone listed on the website and all that. You guys rock, seriously!!
