This auction is for two VIP tickets to An Evening with Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer on Sunday November 6 in Vancouver at the Vogue Theatre. VIP tickets include entrance to the soundcheck and meeting the artists!
These tickets are from the Kickstarter campaign done to fund this tour. You can read about it at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/amandapalmer/an-evening-with-neil-gaiman-and-amanda-palmer
I AM NOT A SCALPER. I purchased the 6 DAYS OF NIGHT | ALL SHOWS package. I have permission from Neil & Amanda to auction off these tickets. 100% of the proceeds from this auction will go to benefit Vermont flooding relief. I live in an area affected by the flooding from Hurricane Irene and am hoping that auctioning off these tickets will generate more money than just donating the money that the tickets cost would have. I will cover the EBay and Paypal fees myself so that 100% of the amount paid for the tickets will be split evenly between four causes:
VT Farm Disaster Relief Fund - http://www.vermontcf.org/farm-fund - general Vermont-wide relief fund for farmers
Vermont Disaster Relief Fund - http://vermont211.org/index.php/10-newsflashes/newsflash/654-disaster-august
West Hartford Library - http://www.hartford-vt.org/content/libraries/ - a small public library near us which lost its entire children's collection along with suffering quite a bit of other damage. You can read more about it at http://americanlibrariesmagazine.org/news/09072011/post-irene-west-hartford-library-lovers-pitch
Operation Revive Royalton - http://operationreviveroyalton.com - Royalton is a town near me which was very hard hit; some farmers lost their entire crops, and I'd like very much to help them directly.
After the donations take place I will post copies of the receipts on my blog at http://www.romkey.com/ to prove that I donated the money.
About the show:
These tickets entitle you to admission to the soundcheck, "the best VIP seats in the house" and a special meet & greet with Neil and Amanda. They will also send you some schwag from the show. I am not certain what this includes and do not think they're sure yet either [update: they will send me the schwag and I will forward it to you - still not certain what it will be].
Entrance is via a guest list, so once the auction is done and you've paid, send me your name and I will pass that on to them to get you on their guest list. If there are any difficulties I will get you in touch directly with my contact .
Payment is via Paypal only and needs to be ASAP after the auction completes for this to work. Returns for this kind of thing make no sense but obviously if something goes totally south and you cannot get in or the show is cancelled, I will refund your money.
