Deer Tick To Auction Tour Bus
Deer Tick hopes to raise funds for Pakistan flood victims.
Deer Tick has announced they will auction off their tour bus “The Flagship” (after 2009 release Born On Flag Day) on eBay to help the flood victims in Pakistan. According to the UN, over 17 million people were affected by the floods, which the UN calls “unprecedented.” "The situation over there is so critical, but it seems that very few people are aware of it," said Deer Tick front man John McCauley. "Maybe it's the stigma with that part of the world, I'm not sure. Either way, we feel really strongly that people should be more aware of the situation and hopefully we can help with that."
The auction will last for three weeks and can be found here.
