Progressive rock festival Ohioprog 2012 announced that there are 2 weeks left to pledge a ticket to the OhioProg festival on Kickstarter. Roughly 45 tickets have been pledged so far and another 350-400 need to be pledged at the various ticket levels in order to reach the goal and hold OhioProg 2012.
Organizers explained that the process is like pre-ordering a ticket, except that the order is canceled if the goal is not met. The goal date is set to January 2, 2012 at 11:59PM (EST).
“It is important that everyone who is going and is planning on going pledge their ticket,” said the press release. “ We’d like to consider alternatives to move forward but that depends on what the final number is on Kickstarter. All the ticketing info and additional event info can be found on the Kickstarter page as well as the festival website.”
OhioProg 2012 is set to take place September 7th, 8th & 9th of 2012 at the Canton Palace Theatre in Canton, Ohio. The tremendous 15 band lineup represents 5 countries.
