Ghost Buffalo benefit auction to help pay Vet Bill

[Guest Admin]

Matt and Marie from Ghost Buffalo's Cat, Little Bee, was recently found in their bedroom about 3 weeks ago with her stomach sliced wide open. They still do not know what happened to her. After 3 surgeries and many trips to the vet she is finally recovering, but all of those expenses added up and contrary to what might be assumed, Matt and Marie are not wealthy.

Because we absolutely love Matt and Marie and want to help out, we are donating this special Ghost Buffalo deluxe set and the proceeds from the Ebay Auction will go to them to help some of their Vet bills.

Here is what you get:

* Both Colors of the vinyl for Ghost Buffalo's "The Magician", one copy will be signed

* A Test Pressing of Ghost Buffalo's "The Magician" (#9 out of 10, since cats have 9 lives)

* Both of Ghost Buffalo's CDs, "S/t" and "The Magician"

* A Ghost Buffalo T-shirt

* A Ghost Buffalo Pint Glass

To recap, you get 3 LPs (1 test pressing), 2 CDs, a Pint Glass, and a T-shirt.

Bidding on this auction will help out some very close friends and incredible musicians.

Never heard their music but this is an awesome gesture and worthy cause.

[cosmonaut]

Yeah, this is a really nice thing to do. Plus, it's a great record. I'd think a lot of people will bid.

[Guest Admin]

i forgot to add that one of the copies will be signed by the band. thanks guys.

[skumbucket]

the new record is great with a capital GRRRR.

i've driven the bidding up a bit already, but i'll see if i can free up some room for more.

[xfedaykinx]

Our pets mean the world to my wife and I, especially our three cats, so I'll send over one of my Pink Lincolns test pressings to help the cause as well. eBay it away Virgil and send my best to Matt and Marie and their poor kitty!

Not to mention, as someone who worked in the vet business for close to 5 years, I know how fucking expensive that shit can get.

PS: Can we get a picture of Little Bee in this thread? You know, like those commercials about helping out kids in Africa and they send you a picture of them all happy and shit?

same here man, my dogs and cats are pretty much the most important things in my life outside of immediate family.

Glad I'm not alone in that, set to that Sarah McLaughlin song I tear up every time.

[Snaggle Von Swift]

that's crazy, but i'm really glad that auction is already starting to get up there in price.

and i'm glad the cat is doing well and recovering.

as the others, i'm definitely a sucker for pets, and would do anything for my cats.

Not that they weren't sad already, but ever since my wife got pregnant, she cannot watch those commercials and changes the channel right away because she just can't handle how sad they are. It also doesn't help that I make jokes about that board game on Robot Chicken in a poor attempt to keep both of us from getting too emotional as well.
