My Van Burned to the Ground! Need Hyper Cube Contest Help

Didja hear story about the Nufunk Van & Reggae band Disaster?
Between 2006-2007 - Nufunk had a 1984 White VW micro-bus that acted as our transportation to events, help move musical and DJ gear as well as helped bands tour around Ontario and Atlantic Canada.
People who travelled in that van include: Z-Trip, Ollie Teeba, Fort Knox Five, Randy Brecker, Krafty Kuts, Charlie Hunter, Chameleon Project, Femi Kuti and many others...
On tour to The Evolve Festival http://www.evolvefestival.com in 2007 - the van mysteriously caught fire in Quebec - the band members had to literally escape for the lives! See photos below! It was a massive disaster, as the band members lost all their clothes and musical gear and I personally lost my instruments; guitar/amp/effects, camera, cell phone, CD, Camping Gear clothes and my beloved VW bus. We lost an estimated $25,000 worth of stuff collectively and it has been a struggle for us ever since. Luckily we have found support along the way and things are getting better all the time.
At the time of the accident, we thought about just going home, we were only 1/2 way to the festival. With some convincing from Evolve, we decided to solider on and we completed our tour to the Festival. It was because of the support of so many people - who gave us clothes and shoes, lent us tents and instruments, gave us shelter and food, that we were able to bounce back from the accident. In the end we made a big splash at the festival, playing two sets - we found the joy in life, even though we came close to losing it and we knew the aftermath of loosing everything was still looming.
HERE's HOW YOU CAN HELP ME
We have however been nominated to enter this contest to win a brand new vehicle that could help turn things around for us. Nissan has entered us in a contest that gives us 1 in 10 chance to win a brand new Hypercube Car (it's a hybrid electric/gas powered vehicle)

I'm sure they're cool guys and all, but they're just saying "we throw parties on cherr beach and want a new van...whamp whamp whamp"
The original poster here
http://www.hypercube.ca/en/Canvas.a...3270815&lang=en
seems much more worthy and in need on a new van.
But there's 50 being given away, so I hope both get one.
the cherry beach guys are sitting at 15th
Nufunk are at 94th
top 50 get a van, so I say vote for Nufunk and get them in the top 50! |
