Happy new year, Hideout members!
Now that the holidays are behind us, it's time to get back to the business of rock'n'roll social networking, and of course that means supporting and staying involved with the GaragePunk Hideout, the best (and largest!) garage/punk/rock'n'roll community on the Weird Wide Web.
We hold fund drives on the Hideout twice a year to raise money to cover our fees for hosting the Hideout so that we can keep the site up and running and renew the hosting plan for another year. Last year was our first year doing this and each of the two drives were successful in raising the cash needed, so we hope we have the same success again this year.
So please consider donating a few bucks to the Hideout to help cover our hosting and operational fees with Ning (our parent site). We realize times are tough and money isn't easy to come by, but any amount is appreciated and we're only really asking for a few bucks per member... that's about the price of a cheap beer at a bar, and if you saw the Hideout at a bar, you'd buy us a beer, wouldn't you?
And, of course, don't forget to visit as often as you can! Lots to read, see, and hear on the Hideout, including our latest venture, the Hideout Comp Series, plus the main network forum, group forums for specific interests, videos, music uploaded by our 6,800+ members, photos, blog posts, event listings, chat room, and last but certainly not least, the amazing GaragePunk Pirate Radio (the only station of its kind in the entire world!). And while you're there, don't forget to update your profile and check those pending friend requests.
As always, thanks for your support and involvement!
Rock on,
kopper

Permalink Reply by kopper on January 9, 2012 at 10:44am Thanks a lot! By the way, a couple of people informed me of an issue with the PayPal donate button on the fundraising page, saying it wasn't working. It's fixed now. Thanks again everyone and keep those donations coming!
