Our very own weirdo genius Dino Felipe is getting ready to hit the road. And he needs our help, i.e. $$$. Hence, a Kickstarter campaign.
At the end of September, he and his sidekick This Heart Electric (AKA Ricardo Guerrero of “Miami Venues Suck Dick” fame) plan to load their crap into an old Chevy S-10 pickup and go zipping off on a 30-day working trip across America.
When news happens, Miami New Times is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If Miami New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
“This’ll be my third headlining tour,” Dino says. “And the reasons I’m starting this Kickstarter Fund are (A) inflated gas prices, (B) we have no money, and (C) that we have an emergency fund in case the car breaks down.”
The campaign closes at 1:25 a.m. on September 14. And so far, Dino’s earned $169 (11 percent!) $1,263 (84 percent!) of his $1500 goal. Do your part by heading over to the official Dino Felipe East Coast & Midwest U.S. Fall Tour homepage, donating some dinero, and getting an awesome gift! Seriously … Even cheapskates who drop one damn dollar will receive a “thank you video message from Dino!”
