Organizers encourage viewers to show their support by tipping the band online or by purchasing their merchandise.

“Musicians have been hit extremely hard by this pandemic,” said Hill. “Their shows and concerts have been cancelled in record numbers and therefore, we must do what we can to ensure arts and artists survive this crisis. The Wicked Tinkers made quite an impression on Carson City last year bringing our biggest crowd to date, so why not re-live the experience? You may even see yourself in the crowd.”
