Help To Save The Milestone In Charlotte, NC. One Of America's Longest Running Punk Rock Dives

Milestone Campaign from Matt K. Clum on Vimeo.

"Alright friends, here it is, the proverbial “Cat out of the bag”...

We need your help. The Milestone Club as we know and love it is in desperate need of a serious renovation and repair to the point that we won’t be able to operate as we are for much longer and that sounds awful and terrifying and pretty much like the worst news anyone could possibly have to share... So, for that, I’m sorry...

Head over to Go Fund Me to offer financial support

We also are currently faced with the opportunity for our team along with the help of some local friends to buy and own the property that the Milestone sits on along with the adjoining plots of land including our neighboring business “The Last Pitcher Show.”

The Catch: the investors interested in helping us buy the property are only on board if we can provide the means for the much needed repairs so that the entirety of the property is being used to benefit and feed into our community as it grows and changes over the next several years.

1,000,000 Views Is A Milestone, Thank You To Everyone That Views Our Flickr Page

We hit a milestone on Flickr, we reached 1,000,000 views

We reached a milestone on the Rusty Knuckles Flickr page by receiving 1,000,000+ views. Maybe that number doesn't mean a lot to some of you, but to us, it's validation for all the hard work that has been involved in creating a music label and custom merch company from the ground up. Thanks to everyone over the last few years for all the comments, feedback and support on the Flickr page. Those simple elements help to keep the fires lit and to keep it honest and true to the craft.
