The Tote saved and a new music festival for the Coast | Music News

Beloved Melbourne venue The Tote has officially been saved as a live music space, following a massive crowdfunding campaign that raised more than $3 million. The Pozible campaign was spearheaded by Last Chance Rock & Roll Bar owners Shane Hilton and Leanne Chance, who announced in May that they’d attempt to reach the $6.6 million sale price through the campaign – with half the money coming from their own funds.

Pozible stated that the crowdfunding campaign could be the “biggest in live music history“. As part of the campaign, Hilton promised to get inked with the names of people who’d donated $1000 (life membership donors); the SMH revealed that means he’ll have 1600 names up his legs.

Meanwhile, the lineup for Let The Good Times Roll festival has been announced!
