Hey there, music fam! You know that iconic spot in Berkeley? Yeah, 924 Gilman Street—the heart of punk’s golden era in the '90s? Well, they’re up to something big and they need your help!
Gilman, the breeding ground for punk revival with legends like Green Day and Rancid, still keeps the spirit alive. They’re the go-to for pop punk, hardcore punk, and now they're even dabbling in hip hop.
But here's the deal: they’re kicking off a Kickstarter to revamp their side door. Why, you ask? Safety and space, my friends! They're aiming to upgrade to double doors for a safer and bigger venue.
Their Instagram's buzzin' about it: "It's been a long-time dream to amp up our safety game by swapping that door. We’ve got some funds set aside, but it's not enough to cover it all. That’s where you come in!"
Their goal? $20,000! It'll handle everything from installation to inspections, ensuring smoother and safer shows for everyone. Plus, they've got a sweet deal for die-hard fans: a piece of Gilman history! Wall chunks straight from where the action's happening, complete with a certificate of authenticity.
Every dollar counts! Join the punk rock cause and be a part of keeping this legendary spot safe and loud. Show some love and chip in if you can. Let’s make 924 Gilman's dream a reality! Donate to the Kickstarter here.
