THE MARSCON 2009 DEMENTIA TRACK FUND RAISER CD/MP3 sets
With the exception of the Music Guest Of Honor, MarsCon can't afford cover the travel and hotel costs for the dozen or so comedy music acts that come from all across the country to perform at MarsCon. That is why for the past few years we have released a Fund Raiser CD set to help raise money to cover the lodging costs of our other out-of-town main stage dementia concert performers. This year's collection are all live recordings from the concerts performed at MarsCon 2008, featuring last year's Music Guests of Honor Hot Waffles, Paul & Storm, and many of the acts returning in 2009. There are 2 sets available in 2 different ways. There's the regular 2 CD set for $20 (which is 2 hours and 40 minutes of music, and comes with an instant MP3 download of the collection), and the DELUXE 3 CD set for $30 (which is 4 hours of music, and also comes with an instant MP3 download of the collection). We also have both albums available in MP3-download-only form as well, for $15 for the regular and $25 for the deluxe. Sales of this year's collection have been much slower than the past two year's collections, and we are still quite a ways away from our goal amount. Picking up a copy of this collection will help us pay for these act's hotel rooms, making it easier for them to come out to the Twin Cities and give it all for the MarsCon audience. So if you can afford it, please pick up a copy today. For track listings and to order, please go here:
