And this is probably the first in a series of several we want to offer you all out there in the Hiverse. Is that a word? Hiverse? It is now! HA! What you see above you, is the rough mock up of what I want the logo to look like for the merchandise that @thealliance will be handing out this year. It has got to be stellar on levels unknown to humankind. Which means, I can't do it. Bwahahahaa! Really though, what I would like to see designed, is some kind of combination of the two words **LIVE** and **HIVE**. Below, are just some weird shits I did to maybe help you along. It doesn't even have to be remotely similar, as long as it looks cool over The Alliance heart and combines the two words. Maybe you transpose them over each other or do some weird negative shadow edit that pops it's ass off. Who knows? Get creative. ![LHIVE7.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23t6zDiJeTNh2vEwZfqQ62WJAR142A3BckTrtgAmX44qzvgPmKj7iSFuZaFCg7akaU89o.png)|![LHIVE5.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23t72XA3RQuxE7YaobDDNT8Vn7oYP8CuqZ8BuBQLyDtBndBs9XcTeGVMAAgYsfhXqge6w.png)|![LHIVE8.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23tRrCqcx3K6DyuGb9iGtzh7cGx4GaWrbpnrWcQpf7HtkNgXbbsafTSVVirkVJKFBWb3N.png)|![LHIVE6.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23swcJge6Js6SQgikcJ2rf58ZrwPh5NbYDsTPG4Zy2UgL3gj81GeokQydgmxbD14YNFFj.png) -|-|-|-| ![LHIVE4.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23tGRc8fwa8ktcRXsJDyd1oamkYG3XAfXgXRgK889ToM73GY6tyx57oCh4eoAYdKt1n5A.png)|![LHIVE3.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23tGRc81PiQkVU3YyNzwx8MUCGWPgnKU5wLz43kuDKpeHgzpKp3jKjH1fBp6Svw2tWEET.png)|![LHIVE2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23t6zSA6pPztw9ciCR7vXegrC19kjcaAnoWKp8C5pviDQZwYFe3T2sUpGKkBkr1KRciSL.png)|![LHIVE1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thealliance/23swbvYePkynJABREZMt2L5hPMT7StpCo87R3gwDjAR2L9F4ZcBwx5DwTqcSw1hGDMm8m.png) -|-|-|-| ### PRIZES

I have been thinking about some good positive motivation to find a great designer to create this. Who doesn't like being paid for their time? I have ultimately settled on **100 HBD** as the reward for your hard work and supreme awesomeness. You can either take the money and run, or, you could totally redeem it for a Gold ticket to acquire the VIP standing at the LHIVE part of The Block Party II itself! Heck, you could even swap it for HIVE and power it up. The choice is yours once you win and we have our 'logo' for this year. You have two weeks, aaaaand - go! - **Update** - [CineTV](9https://peakd.com/c/hive-121744) has added 100 #CINE and a Video Vic Rising Star card! ___ ## Sponsors - We Want ALL of YOU!

For about the past month now, the main goal of arranging things for The Block Party II, has been to gather enough artists to have a woopass concert. We are very satisfied and confident that this has been accomplished and so, we are pursuing sponsors that wish to promote themselves and help the gathering be a huge success. I've been blessed with luck so far! Several have already come aboard and multiple others will do what they can as time and resources permit. Plus, we had a few approach us and make a few generous offers! So far, here is what is being donated to the cause (and a huge thank you!): - From @raymondspeaks - 1000 **HIVE** + and undisclosed amount of **BRO** tokens! - From @thebeardflex - throwing down for some #pizza for one of the meals at Mellow Mushroom! - From @thestickupboys - options are being reviewed, but they're in! - From @papacrusher & #cine - 6,000 **CINE** to be distributed amongst Silver and Gold ticket holders! (received - thank you!) - From @tokenpimp & #thepimpdisctrict - 10,000 [**PIMP**](https://tribaldex.com/trade/PIMP) + 1000 **HIVE**! (received - thank you!) - From @tunz & the NFT music community - **1000 HIVE**! - From @ravenmus1c - 'The Raven Queen' - options are being reviewed, but they're in! - From @uwelang and the @music-community - promo post payouts and support! *(current total = 9.317 HBD - added to the pot for attendees)* - From @thealliance - all HBD earned from posts until a week prior to the event will be split evenly amongst the attendees! *(current total = 111.595 HBD)* These have all been fully committed and are welcomed with appreciation from all those that it will affect. Aside from locking down a venue over the next few weeks, I will be hitting the grindstone and seeing about other people, organizations and initiatives that want to be in on The Block Party II. Maybe this is you? If so, please comment below what you are going to contribute or reach out to @enginewitty on Discord to discuss options. All that choose to sponsor in some form or fashion, will be represented on the tickets, posters, (select) merch and other various promotional materials.

Yes, tickets! Go get yours now! Do keep in mind, *these tickets are not for The Block Party itself, as we will be lining up some things on various days that won't cost you anything but your time and presence*. These tickets are for the concert on September 10th, to help reimburse [The Alliance](https://peakd.com/@thealliance) for setting things up and paying the fabulous artists that are coming to perform for us. The final design will be revealed after we have sponsors situated. There are 4 different kinds of tickets. The first three, will be word of mouth sales until June and will increase in price after June 30th. All funds can/will be sent to @theblockpartyii to distribute among the musicians and [The Alliance](https://peakd.com/@thealliance). If you are purchasing a ticket for someone else, please put that name/account in the memo. Those are: - **BRONZE** These tickets will initially cost 10 HBD (or the equivalent in whatever currency one pays in) and will allow a person to come socialize with everyone present and enjoy the music. The NFTs will also be able to be redeemable for a download/NFT of our choosing. ___ Current holders: - NONE - **SILVER** These tickets will initially be sold for 50 HBD (or the equivalent in whatever currency one pays in) and will allow a person enjoy a meal (dinner), take advantage of the bar, and go home with a few momentos provided by us. The NFTs will also be able to be redeemable for a download/NFT of our choosing. There will only be a limited number of these sold (250) as to try hard and not overextend our resources. Current holders: - @summertooth - @davedickeyall - @bethvalverde ___ - **GOLD** These tickets will initially be sold for 100 HBD (or the equivalent in whatever currency one pays in) and will be considered the VIP passes for the event. They will allow a person enjoy a meal (dinner), take advantage of the bar, go home with a nice swag bag provided by us ***and*** be invited to the after party following the concert where you can hang out with all the artists. The NFTs will also be able to be redeemable for a handful of downloads/NFTs of our choosing. There will only be a limited number of these sold as well (100) so may want to act fast if you plan on taking control of the twilight with Witty. Current holders: - @ambiguity - @papacrusher - @blueeyes8960 - @crypt-skip ___ We feel this gives people time to save up for it before June and after June, there will be a 50% increase in the ticket cost. This is because general public tickets will go on sale (the same as a **BRONZE** ticket - but without the desired NFT redemption) for $15.00 USD. These will be sold promotionally from a few radio stations and a handful (based on the venue's total capacity) will be held for 'at the door' sales and latecomers. **NOTE** - *For those not paying in HBD, contact @enginewitty so an exchange can be made and he will send the equivalent HBD to @theblockpartii for the artists and [The Alliance](https://peakd.com/@thealliance)*. ___ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QCPBmRr1xs

You may have noticed a video up there. Yes, she is coming out from California to perform for and with us! She was just recently featured on an episode of Netflix's hit show [Ultimatum](https://www.instagram.com/p/CcnsMxklzbu/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link). We have made a change in the lineup and instead of Mr. Cap, we are broadening the genre filter a bit more by having EE Beyond join us! Including her, we have @trentonlundy1, @d-vine, @junkfeathers, @double-eagle, @polarmystro, @onemedia, @asonintrigue - bringing SkumlordT & Hello Luna, @lofi.freq and @iamdarrenclaxton! Hell of a docket there ladies and lads. ### The Venue We are still looking for that bombass spot and trying to hold out to make that happen, it will help to have more sponsorships and hope to lock down some good ones this week. We do have a few back-up venues already in tow if necessary, we'll see how it goes. We are aiming hard to have this finalized by mid May. We are trying to get a sweet multilevel building down on Broadway or 2nd Ave, maybe even Cannery Row or some sweet spot in the heart of Music City. Rest assured, it'll kick fuk'n ass. So, pass this thing around! Reblog it, tweet it out, drop a note on IG, do whatever you think will help! We will update you with ticket sales and keep you posted on all the things happening. Again, if you are buying a ticket for someone else, please attach a memo in the transaction. Stay tuned my lovely humans! Or aliens. Or, ya know, whatever you choose to call yourself. 😝
