Thank you everyone for your support!

Save The Funeral Home

The Funeral Home has been putting on shows featuring local and national touring bands for six years now with no intervention from police officers or city officials. This is a venue run for the people by the people. No one makes a profit here. In fact, those “running” The Funeral Home have put forth much time and capital out of pocket to keep this place going. On Tuesday, April 16^th 2013 The Funeral Home received two citations and was officially shut down as a music venue.

The Tickets:

1.       Violation of chapter 75 section 13 – no live music license $52.50

2.       Violation of chapter 293 section 4 & 7 – excessive noise and live band $75

This in not a big deal but the officers warned Clint if they had to come again he would be arrested and they photographed our chalk board with the list of upcoming events.

Our Goals:

1.       Get the place up to code (in order to)

2.       Obtain a live music license (so we can)

3.       Create and run a multipurpose Venue

What we need:

Capital to make all the proper repairs in order to bring the building up to code

How we will get it:

Fundraising

·         April 27^th and 28^th we will be hosting a Yard Sale

o   We already have vintage clothing, band shirts, cds, records, etc. and we are asking for as many donations as possible. If anyone has anything they would like to donate contact Clint or Nicole.

o   Advertising

·         Kickstarter or something similar to promote our cause (monetary donations)

o   Setting up a paypal account

·         Benefit Shows

o   We will be setting up some in the near future

o   Anyone can set up a benefit shows

·         Funeral Home Merchandise

o   Donations or printing some things up at cost that we can sell at our yard sales and or benefit shows

·         Donation Boxes at local businesses

o   Record stores, restaurants, tattoo parlors, etc.

We have full support from Joseph Golombek Jr., North District Common Council Member. So far he has contacted the police department, is getting us a relevant permits and inspection list, and is willing to work with us to get us up and running as soon as possible.

Things we can do to create positive energy and gain the support of locals:

·         Keep in touch with key players in the neighborhood by

o   Stressing our positive impact on the community

§  previous donations to the food pantry and local churches

§  we bring business to riverside

o   Participating in local cleanups

o   Talk with local Riverside business ask for letters of recommendation

o   Talk with neighbors and obtain signatures from everyone within 500ft.

·         Market The Funeral Home as a Community or Youth Center

·         The Funeral Home as a Not for Profit Organization

What you can do to help:

·         Donations for our yard sale

·         Monetary  donations to our “kickstarter”

·         Sign our guestbook and share what The Funeral Home means to you

·         Set up a benefit show

·         Spread the word

o   Share our story through social media

Overall, there are too many live music venues closing in Buffalo. We have counted at least seven in the past four months; and many of those that are still open charge way too much to host a show. We are in desperate need of a low cost medium size venue. If we are unable to reach our goal of keeping The Funeral Home alive as a venue we fully intend on finding a new one.

The Funeral Home is dead

Thanks for all the good times.
