Please read the previous posts and gather all of the information. Check in will be in front of SNUG HARBOR. It will be from 12pm (noon) to around 6pm. After that, everything will be over at Lunchbox. If you want to buy a shirt, or pick up a shirt that you pre-ordered, you will only be able to do it at check-in OR Lunchbox (after check-in). If you bought a ticket online, god bless you my child, then bring your "receipt" to check in. If you can't print off the confirmation then just bring ID to show us that you are, in fact you. If you don't have an ID, or you used your mom's paypal to buy your ticket, you'll still be fine as long as you know the name used when the ticket was purchased.<br />
<br />
Wristbands will be for sale at LUNCHBOX, SNUG HARBOR, and THE MILESTONE. Two day passes are $30 (day of price). If you choose to only go to select shows (fun sponge), there will be individual prices for each show. Please check the "Venues" link for the prices. If you do not have a wristband please donate to the shows that say donate on them.<br />
<br />
As always, be respectful of the neighborhood, the venues, the people working, volunteering, and playing music. Tip your waiters, bartenders and anyone who is being awesome. Please be careful crossing the streets, use crosswalks and for the love of all things holy, DO NOT drink and drive!!!<br />
<br />
Thanks so much for the support, we couldn't do this without YOU. Treasure Fest is a group effort and it takes all of us to make this a success. Help bands move gear off stage (knowingly), be a volunteer, and help keep things running on time. As Bill & Ted once said, "be excellent to each other."<br />

If you are in a band then do your damnedest to make this time work for you. If you cannot make that time then please email us so we can have your "envelope" at the venue you are playing in. If you are playing at The Milestone then you will check in at The Milestone due in part to the geographic issues of checking in a different area. <br />
<br />
<strong>Saturday</strong> check in will be in front of <strong>Snug Harbor</strong> as well. It will be from <strong>12pm (noon) to about 3pm</strong>. Once again, if you are in a band then try and make this time to check in, even if you are not playing around this time. If you do not make check in then your wristbands, money and envelopes will be at the venue that you are playing in. <br />
<br />
If you are a patron of Treasure Fest, and you are awesome, and bought a ticket online beforehand, then take your receipt to check in at Snug Harbor on Friday and you will be given a wristband. If you can not make the check in times (above) then go to <strong>Lunchbox Records</strong> to check in. Only go to Lunchbox to check in if you MISS check in. If you can make the check in times then go to Snug Harbor. <br />
<br />
If you still have not purchased a ticket you still can. You can be entered into the raffle if you buy a ticket before <strong>May 16th at 11:59pm</strong>. Tickets after that time will go up to $30 for the weekend. You can buy a ticket now for $25 and win lots of records and two <strong>FEST 12</strong> passes, so you really can't lost by buying a ticket early. Also, it really helps with being able to have the funds available before the weekend comes, and being able to pay all of the out of town bands before the festival starts (i.e., the envelopes that their money is in). <br />
<br />
Looking forward to next weekend!!! Come out to <strong>The Milestone on May 11th (Saturday)</strong> and celebrate with us for the PRE-FEST show/benefit/cover show. It will be awesome!!!Treasure Festhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10802601607655430066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091705118979416104.post-8243215537006585072013-05-01T07:41:00.000-07:002013-05-01T08:04:39.159-07:00May 1st: RAFFLE INFORMATION UPDATED!!!So here is the raffle for 2013.

Here is the flyer, please share it on your social media pages. There could be some minor changes, but for the most part this is it. As you can see, we are going with a fantasy/video game/rpg theme. We implore you to go along with the theme. For example, we welcome anyone who dresses like their favorite video game character, or just simply dressing like a wizard would be awesome. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

We really appreciate the support thus far, and could use your support further. We need places for bands to stay, and more tickets need to be sold. A lot of people wait until the last minute to buy tickets and it really stresses us out. <strong>Tickets are NOW $25</strong> and will be at that price until May 16th at 11:59pm. At midnight on what is officially May 17th, tickets will then become $30 for the weekend. If you buy a ticket before hand, you not only save $5, you also are entered into a raffle to win a lot of <strong>FREE</strong> records and gift cards. There are three prize packs, so there really are a lot of reasons to buy tickets early. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We have another benefit show coming up on May 11th, the weekend before Treasure Fest III. A few locals will be playing cover sets to help you get in the spirit of the following weekend and raise a couple bucks to help pay all of the amazing out of town bands. Secret Hospital (Wire), Late Bloomer (Foo Fighters), Mineral Girls (Weezer), Black Market (Pixies) is what that cover show will look like. One Another will be playing their "mixtape" cover set as well for the occasion. That event is at The Milestone and will be on May 11th at usual show time (8pm doors, 9pm show). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once again, thanks for all the support, we really appreciate it. Please purchase your tickets before the prices go up, also standing in line sucks, so get to "festing" early and buy a ticket. Just so you know, <strong>Lunchbox Records</strong> is selling physical tickets NOW. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>The Diamond</strong> will be the OFFICIAL food sponsor of the event. Make sure you go there for all of your hunger needs. For anyone with a weekend pass they will be offering a 10% discount!!!</div>

Check out this video from last year's Treasure Fest, that Dane Abernathy filmed. It focuses primarily on more of the local Charlotte acts but it definitely serves as a great reminder for how awesome this year is going to be. Features sets from Secret Hospital, Old Flings (Asheville, NC), One Another and a bunch of others.

We have good news and bad news. Let me go ahead and get the bad news out of the way. Sooo, it looks like STUDIO 1212 will, unfortunately, no longer be a venue for this year's fest. Blame zoning issue and laws for that one, Jim McGuire and company are still awesome in our books. We want to thank them for being such awesome hosts for the previous two fests. Life goes on and we adjust.
<br><br>
Milestone and Snug Harbor will be picking up the burden and we really appreciate their hard work. Obviously this will make it hard to walk from Snug Harbor to Milestone but with a little bit of planning ahead and responsibility you can make it work out. The shows at Snug will be starting a little earlier (2pm-Saturday) and Milestone will be running earlier than they usually do.
<br><br>
Please be awesome to anyone who is a volunteer or working these long days. Tip well, give them hugs, and be helpful/supportive. They are working hard so you don't have to, be respectful!!! Lastly, we will be announcing the second round of bands for the fest in a couple weeks, so please stay tuned. Make sure you buy a ticket early, tickets will be going up on the day of (check tickets page for details)!!!Treasure Festhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10802601607655430066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091705118979416104.post-60382963473841346052013-01-27T15:41:00.000-08:002013-01-27T15:41:06.634-08:00January 28th: Lineup AnnouncementsCheck out the first wave of lineup announcements! Just as in previous years, there's a wide array of bands from across the Carolinas, Southeast, and Northeast. There will be another round of bands that we will announce in the coming weeks, so definitely stay tuned for that as well!!
We are currently looking for more sponsors and are planning a couple fundraisers/benefit shows to help with the costs, which are a lot higher this year than they have been previously.

Hello everyone, long time no talky. We currently have around 40 bands confirmed for TREASURE FEST 3 (MAY 17-18). This year is shaping up to be really awesome. We will be announcing some of the bands soon but we are still waiting on some confirmations to come in. It has been a hard year to book with so many awesome fests around the time of Treasure Fest 3. No reason to fear though, the lineup is awesome. <br><br>
Just like in previous years, Treasure Fest operates on a grassroots community basis. We can use your help with so many of the details. Bands will need places to stay, P.A.'s will need to be found and tickets will need to be bought. I have no doubts that all this will happen, but just know that we do appreciate any and all help on a local or regional level to pull this off. <br><br>
Thanks so much for the support, please stay tuned for some of the lineup announcements. Also feel free to go ahead and buy a ticket if you would like to help the cause, we would really appreciate it!!!

We will also have schedules // maps for you to pick up at check in so you can make sure you know where your favorite band is playing, and what time you need to be there to see them.<br><br>
If you have any questions, just come ask us!!<br><br>
We can't wait to see you all later today!<br><br>
We love you!!!Treasure Festhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10802601607655430066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091705118979416104.post-78738719703756282022012-05-17T06:59:00.000-07:002012-05-17T06:59:37.509-07:00May 17: One Day Before T-day.Today is the last day to buy an advanced ticket to be entered to win raffle items. Head on over to the ticket page and do yourself a solid. <br><br>
Treasure Fest II starts tomorrow and we couldn't be more excited. We have 60+ bands and we are stoked about all of them. Make sure you stop in at check in (Snug Harbor) tomorrow and Saturday (only if you didn't check in on Friday). Check will start around noon but for the most part the peak check in times are 2-5pm on both days. If you miss check in, might wrap up around 6pm, then you are a terrible person. Just kidding, ask the door guy at Snug Harbor and he should be able to help you. <br><br>
If you see someone with a lanyard then ask them questions. They are volunteers and know all the answers to the secrets of the universe. I kid you not. If you as a patron see something not right or something that needs tending to please tell someone. We want this to be a positive experience for anyone. I will say, consider yourself a deputized volunteer. This is a DIY festival funded in part buy local Plaza-Midwood businesses and with support from you. This festival hinges on the positive vibes from all of the patrons and local citizens. We are counting on you.<br><br>
Weather is looking awesome right now. Buy yourself some new shoes and bring a bike. No littering, no fighting, no frowns and there will be no problems. At all costs, please avoid the 'noid. If you have any further questions then feel free to email us at <b>treasurefestnc@gmail.com</b>, I will be checking the email ever so often, if you are in a band you should have my number and I should have yours. Thanks for all the support couldn't do this without you.Treasure Festhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10802601607655430066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091705118979416104.post-20477807421199583402012-05-15T09:12:00.000-07:002012-05-15T09:12:39.967-07:00May 15: It's Tuesday, are you ready?Are you ready for Treasure Fest II? Both days look like they are going to have some awesome shows on them. People seem really excited about Snug Harbor on both days and all of the other venues are buzzing too. Make sure you check out the schedule now, figure out a game plan so you can hit it hard on game day (may 18th). <br><br>
Do you need a place to stay during Treasure Fest II? There are locals opening up their homes to bands and patrons so just ask around. If that doesn't work then hit up Econo Lodge on Briar Creek. Their info is posted on the LODGING tab of this site. The rates are super cheap and they are a stone's throw away from all the action. Be safe while staying in motels. Don't leave valuables in your vehicle and be smart. <br><br>
I don't want to jinx it (knock on wood) but weather looks like it will be nice on the 18th and the 19th. Make sure you come to check in (in front of Snug Harbor) and get your wristband. A lot of people have bought tickets, so if you want to be cool like them, and enter in to win an awesome raffle then buy your ticket now. Check in is from about noon to 5pm on both days. Depending on interest the times could be shorter or longer. Be there at 1pm at the latest if possible. Get it done early then go eat at the many awesome restaurants Plaza-Midwood has to offer. Life doesn't get any better than that. Good music and good food. Check out the EATS tab for all the good food. <br><br>
Let's have fun and be respectful to the neighborhood. Charlotte, Plaza-Midwood, and Treasure Fest looks forward to having you. Friday is gonna be amazing.Treasure Festhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10802601607655430066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091705118979416104.post-53807940667976714202012-05-13T10:12:00.003-07:002012-05-13T10:18:35.648-07:00May 13: It's Coming!!!Treasure Fest is coming up on us quick. Hope you have a ticket. If you don't then go to the TICKET page and check out the raffle and the shirt. If you buy an advanced ticket then you can win soooo much free stuff. Weather should be good, buy some walking shoes and commence to partying. <br><br>
If you are looking for somewhere to stay there is the Econo Lodge on Briar Creek near Bojangles Coliseum. Check out the LODGING tab for information. Originally we were told the room was $25. It was a little misleading. A single room is in fact that much but you have to add taxes. Taxes suck but they are a reality of life. Split between a lot of friends this should still be a sweet deal. The double room is also available, but is more money, obviously. TREASURE FEST is not responsible for anything that happens at these locations. The motel isn't in the best area, don't leave valuables in your car, should be fine though, its still Charlotte. <br><br>
You should be stoked for next weekend. Take off work, save your lunch money and have lots of fun!!!Treasure Festhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10802601607655430066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091705118979416104.post-47798223355995924602012-05-11T11:30:00.001-07:002012-05-11T11:30:24.212-07:00May 11: Treasure Fest II ScheduleHere is a direct link to the schedule.

It starts off right with me talking but you will pick up on the idea asap. It features some of the bands playing the Fest, not all, but it will give you a good place to start with some of the bands that you might not be too aware of. <br><br>

If you live in Charlotte you should be there. If you live close to Charlotte then you should still be there. Local favorites, One Another, Moenda, Pullman Strike, along with newbies, Meat Group (Brain F, Logic Problem, Joint D) and AM/FMs are helping us raise some money to pay the 60+ bands on the Treasure Fest II weekend. We will also be selling tickets to Treasure Fest so bring cash or even a debit card and show your support. <br><br>
Monday we will be releasing raffle information but for now we can tell you that the following labels are participating...
No Idea, Tiny Engines, Sorry State, Self Aware, Fat Sandwich, and Lunchbox Records. The Fest will be offering up a ticket as well in the raffle. <br><br>

Treasure Fest II is coming up on us quick. We may still need help with housing bands that are playing the fest and we may also need to borrow some PA equipment and microphones/stands. Not sure how much, but please contact us. <br><br>
We also are working on solidifying raffle prizes. So far we have Lunchbox Records, Sorry State Records, Self Aware Records, Fat Sandwich Records, Tiny Engines Records, No Idea Records and maybe a few more. You know what that means? It means that if you buy a ticket you and possibly a couple friends (runner-ups) could win a whole lot of records. More than $100 worth. Pretty awesome, but wait, there is more!!! Fest 11, in Gainesville, FL has graciously donated a ticket to our raffle. Basically you can win an $85-125 FEST 11 ticket for ONLY $25. That is insane. The Fest is October 26-28 and there are over a hundred bands playing. Bands such as Braid, Lagwagon, Night Birds, Algernon Cadwallader (also on T-Fest), and the almighty 7 Seconds. <br><br>
<a href="http://www.thefestfl.com">www.thefestfl.com</a>
<br><br>If you buy your ticket before midnight on May 17th, the day before Treasure Fest begins, then you can surely win some awesome stuff. If not then you are still supporting a DIY and local festival that brings so many regional, national and international acts to Charlotte, NC. It doesn't hurt that it is located in the best neighborhood in North Carolina, Plaza-Midwood. Come out and support stuff. Stay tuned for more raffle details!!!
