Umphrey’s McGee is hosting a Golden Ticket event this coming weekend at the Summer Camp Festival. The group explains, “We have stuffed 250 autographed Mantis deluxe boxes with a huge cache of UM goodies, each one entirely unique. The contents run the gamut with t-shirts, UMLives, DVDs, hand bills, coasters, set list notebooks, wristbands, bandanas, guitar picks, so forth and so on. Each box is a surprise unto itself packed with a slew of UM merchandise.” In addition, the group has created 10 boxes that contain Golden Tickets. Folks who land these packages will receive, such items as 2 tickets to every Umphrey’s show for a year, dinner with the band before a show, tickets and VIP passes to the group’s New Year’s Run, a voicemail message from bassist Ryan Stasik (Take that, Carl Kasell!) and much more.

The event will take place at Summer Camp, this Friday, May 27th from 1:00pm – 3:00pm next to the Sunshine stage before Jake Cinninger and Brendan Bayliss perform their Conscious Alliance acoustic set. Stasik will host with the other band members milling about as well to ooh and ahh at the winnings.
