There will be a raffle around 10:45pm, after the final act. There will be six (6) drawings and each of those winners will be contacted by us and mailed prizes from our stash. Prizes will include albums from the Bandcamps of the VO5 acts, Steam download codes from the brand-new Orlando-made indie game Jungles of Maxtheria, and one of our Ongaku Overdrive merch bundles.
