Music The Kris Jensen Memorial Site Has Some Amazing Things for Auction
Posted by Ned Lannamann on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 12:01 PM
Last night's Kris Jensen Memorial fundraiser was, despite the somber occasion, a lot of fun. There was an incredibly sturdy piñata (did anyone ever break that thing?) filled with handmade crafty goodies, and a ton of good music on the Holocene stage, highlighted by the jazzy spirals of AU turning dance-happy YACHT, Copy, and May Ling fans on their ear.
If you didn't make it down last night, there is still a way to contribute to this very worthy cause. Go to the Kris Jensen Memorial Fund's website and participate in their very cool auction, which is packed with one of a kind items. There are rare test pressings, custom print jobs, and even a huge, amazing gift pack from Kill Rock Stars (pictured above) which'll instantly up the cool factor of your record collection by 100.
So yeah, go, bid, help, do all that. Or, if you prefer, you can make a direct donation to the fund via PayPal.
