Thank you to all of you who attended, played, volunteered, and/or donated to our indiegogo campaign and made the Fox Theater benefit for 924 Gilman such a success!

We don’t have totals of tickets sold or money collected- it’s way too early to know, but we DO know that you donated more than $31,000 via our Indiegogo campaign for exclusive shirts, Fox Theater tickets, signed posters, east bay punk tours, and Night Light tickets, among many other thank-you gifts. Gilman also receives 10% of every ticket sold to the event.
We also raised around $1700 during the Fox show in direct donations, mostly for original flyers provided by Aaron Cometbus and the sweet red 924 Gilman shirts printed by our friends at Bad Skulls Printing!
Green Day showed up and accepted a Mayoral Proclamation that February 19, 2016 was Green Day Day from Oakland Mayor Libby Schaff.
All 14 bands ripped through their unique takes on songs from “Dookie”- from gospel choir to Zappa-damaged weirdness to spare Americana to ska-punk and on and on!
You can hear all of these covers on the exclusive CD & digital download, “Undercover Presents A Tribute to ‘Dookie’ by Green Day”. 924 Gilman receives 10% of every sale!
