And after the organization's ludicrous song and dance, want to know how many people actually turned up? 13. Yes... only 13 people turned up to picket the concert.
Today @WBCSays is going to picket us. For every member of WBC that actually shows up we will donate $20 to @HRC #pride2014

Thank you @WBCSays for the update on the total amount you donated to @HRC today. $20X13= weak. We're going to make it an even $1000.

The band announced yesterday, that for every member of WBC that showed up, they were going to donate $20 to the Human Rights Campaign. Since $260 was a very low number to donate to the civil rights organization, they decided to donate $1000 as well as 5% sales of merchandise from the concert.
We will also be donating 5% of our total merch sales from this show to @HRC
