The House that Widespread Panic Fans Built

We all know that the band (Widespread Panic) gave a very generous dontation of $150,000.00 to the Make It Right Foundation to help the people of New Orleans.

We think it is time for the fans to do their part, and try to match the band's contribution.

We have created a team on the Make it Right website

"The House that Widespread Panic Fans Built"

You can follow the link below to donate. Once you select your donation amount, then you can select which Team/House you want to donate to. Scroll down and look for our team.

New Orleans has been very good the the Widespread Panic community over the years, and this is our chance to give back. Every little bit helps, so please give whatever you can.

Thanks

Langerado 2009 Cancelled!

Today, the 2009 Langerado Music Festival is cancelled due to sluggish ticket sales. The 7th annual event was slated to happen March 6-8 at their new home in downtown Miami's Bicentennial Park.

Langerado's independent local promoters, faced with a very tough decision in a dismal economy, cancelled the 2009 event only after every possible option was exhausted.

As Langerado Co-Promoter Ethan Schwartz explains, "Langerado has always put the fan experience first. Unfortunately, during these difficult economic times, and facing a first year in a new venue, it's become apparent that we cannot execute a production that lives up to the high standards of our past events. Putting Langerado on hold was the toughest decision we have ever had to make. We are very grateful for the support of the greater-Miami community and the music community during this difficult time."

All tickets purchased will be refunded. Please look for ticket refunds to be processed in the next 5-7 business days. Each order will be refunded to the credit card in full, minus the included order processing fees. Shipping fees will also be credited for those orders that did not select the free shipping promotion.
