Hello?
Greg Braysford of Hyena Inc. and Chris Vysotskaya of Edinburgh Zeuhl are joining their forces to bring YOU a carefully crafted programme of enlightening entertainment and exquisite sonic delights at the WHOLE WORLD WINDOW III gatherings that will take place before SING TO TIM events in Manchester on 10th October, Glasgow on 11th October, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne on 12th October.
To celebrate the music of TIM SMITH and all things CARDIACS, we are putting on pre-Cardiacs-shows get-togethers with live music, Cardiacs-themed DJ sets, and some lovely thoughtful touches here and there.
For YOUR listening pleasure WE are bringing together ALL HAIL HYENA, A PIG CALLED EGGS, DJ GONGMAN, and BOB DRAKE.
This full line-up will manifest itself in Manchester. In Glasgow and Newcastle-upon-Tyne, the sonic treats will be provided exclusively by BOB DRAKE (who will play a full-length set at these two events) and DJ GONGMAN.
All three events will be FREE TO ATTEND.
Is it just mud?
In the best DIY spirit, we have taken care of as many organisational elements and aspects ourselves as we possibly could.
However, some costs incurred have been unavoidable. As all three events are free to attend, that makes it very difficult for us to recoup the expenses, so now WE are seeking YOUR financial support in making this happen.
Every contribution, no matter how big or small (you can enter any amount in the box next to the "Donate" button), would be accepted with deep gratitude and used towards recouping the costs of the venue hire, sound engineers' services, sourcing some Crowdfunder rewards, covering the fundraising platform fees, and also put towards covering the costs associated with bringing Mr Drake from across the channel to play at all three Whole World Window III gatherings.
We are looking for £1,000 to help us with the estimated costs of organising these three events. Any contribution towards covering the expenses mentioned earlier will be met with great appreciativeness, and praise and thanks will be distributed voluminously in response.
All the funny toys
By way of heartfelt thankyous we are able to offer a signed Bob Drake CD (a choice of 10 titles, 30 copies available) to those donating £10 or over. It can be signed to you personally if you wish, please let us know through the Crowdfunder "Contact project" feature.
PLEASE NOTE. £10 donation does not includes postage in case you are unable to collect the CD at one of the three Whole World Window events. If you would like to get the CD posted to you, please get in touch through the Crowdfunder contact form and we will sort it out.
Is everybody happy?
In the event of this fundraiser being a roaring success in covering all aforementioned costs incurred in the organisation of the WHOLE WORLD WINDOW III events in Manchester, Glasgow and Newcastle-upon-Tyne, any extra funds would be given to the musicians and a DJ playing at these FREE TO ATTEND events.
If this fundraiser will not reach its intended target, the collected funds will be used to pay the Crowdfunder platform fees and to cover other costs of this fundraiser, and the remaining sum will be split equally between Greg Braysford and Chris Vysotskaya to cover the above-mentioned costs incurred by them in the process of organising the Whole World Window III gatherings in Manchester, Glasgow and Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
You will not need a ticket for these pre-shows, they are free.
You still can get tickets to the Sing To Tim events in Glasgow and Newcastle if you can make it.
Do you look forward to these singularly beautiful, sonically thrilling, and hauntingly meaningful events?
SO DO I.
Chris & Greg
