This, ladies and gentlemen, this is why our scene is so strong. Witch Tripper’s bassist Stoph becomes that bit more haggered and worn in a week or so (14th June) and Facebook prompted him to collect donations for charity instead of birthday wishes, as it does.
So he clicked some buttons, set up a donation page and… then things went a bit mad. Offers of prizes came in from a festival. Or two. Or, actually, eight eleven. Also signed albums. And gin!
All you have to do is donate. There’s no set amount, but the £2000 target must be reached to trigger the prize avalanche. One lucky winner will be picked for each prize (unless one person scoops the lot and spends a fortune on fuel getting around all the events). The full list is as below:
- The Sophie Festival will randomly choose 1 contributor to win free weekend tickets to The Sophie Festival 2018 at Rebellion in Manchester
- John Badger (Badgerfest Promotions) will also give 1 random donator 1 ticket to Badger Fest 2018 The Sequel at Rebellion in Manchester! and 1 ticket to – Shrapnel, Solitary, Incinery And More In Manchester
