Hookahville XXX Presale Tickets and Lineup

HELLO HOOKAHVILLE! We are excited to be able to announce the Hookahville XXX lineup. This coming Labor Day Weekend we will be lucky enough to experience the funkiness of Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk and the uplifting grooves of Arrested Development. Bela Fleck will be back again with Abigail Washburn and the Sparrow Quartet, and Big Head Todd and the Monsters will be making their first Hookahville appearance. Freekbass will be around for Friday’s early bird, and The Schwag will be performing late night on Saturday. There will be many more acts announced in the very near future, so please keep checking back for more info.

Fall Hookahville 2008 Tickets are $50 for a LIMITED time, then will be $65 until August 15th. After August 15th tickets will be available at the gate for $80. http://valley.inticketing.com/evinfo.php?eventid=25955

Announcement about Fall Hookahville

In an effort to make up for the long wait that many had to endure to enter the spring show, we have decided that early bird for Hookahville XXX will be FREE (as always, you need a Hookahville ticket to attend early bird). Not only that, but ekoostik hookah will be playing a set at early bird, starting at 8:30. When Hookah is done, there will be more music on the second stage.

Perhaps most importantly, everything possible is being done to ensure that there will be NO LONG LINES to get into the venue. We hope that you will accept this in addition to our previously posted apology, and will come and help us celebrate, for the 30th time, our favorite weekend. We hope to see you all at Hookahville XXX, August 29 - 31!

Hookah Fans for Food Art Auction

June 16, 2008

Hookah Fans for Food (HFfF) along with Steve Trickle, ekoostik hookah, their fans, and the artist Steve O., are thrilled to present the enclosed checks to the Licking County Humane Society (LCHS) as the beneficiary of Hookahville XXIX.

The enclosed checks include proceeds from a painting that was done on stage during ekoostik hookah’s performance by the artist Steve O. who then kindly donated his creation to HFfF. The painting was then auctioned off on EBay and sold for $1000 plus $30 shipping fees. HFfF received $1002.73 from this sale as a result of 2.9% PayPal fees charged. The buyer does not wish to have the painting shipped so HFfF will refund the buyer $29 ($30 minus the 2.9% transaction fee), leaving the remaining sum of $973.73 to donate to LCHS.

The remaining funds included in the enclosed checks are donations collected from ekoostik hookah fans at Hookahville; the amount donated from this is $707. The total amount of the enclosed checks is the sum of the above mentioned totals minus postal fees.

HFfF, a fan-based not-for-profit, is happy to have the LCHS as one of their friends and to support one of their favorite causes, those that cannot help themselves, the animals. It was a pleasure having your organization represented on-site in support of the fundraiser, thank you; it was great having you by our sides. We hope this money helps you in your efforts to help the animals in your community and, we wish your organization continued success and good fortune during these hard economic times.

Sincerely,

Hookah Fans for Food
