Legendary costumed metal band solicits fan support on Indiegogo<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"GWAR<\/p>\n

Heavy metal monsters\u00a0<\/span>GWAR<\/a>\u00a0suffered a major setback in March when frontman\u00a0<\/span>Dave Brockie<\/a>, a.k.a. Oderus Orungus,\u00a0<\/span>died unexpectedly<\/a>\u00a0at the age of 50. Now they aim to move forward once again, while honoring their fallen leader, with help from their fans. As it turns out, Brockie had a dream to open up his very own restaurant in the band’s hometown of Richmond, Virginia, and his pals are now using\u00a0<\/span>Indiegogo<\/a>\u00a0to fun the so-called GWARbar.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We have found the perfect building in Richmond’s historic\u00a0<\/span>Jackson Ward<\/a>, but we need your help to transform it into a fantasy land of food and beverage that we know it can be,” they write. “We need a budget to update almost every surface on the interior and exterior of the building, including bars, floors, walls, ceilings and bathrooms. The money we raise on Indiegogo will also be used to help us renovate the kitchen and purchase all the equipment we will need to bring Derks’ vision of ‘gourmet junk food’ to life. We will be building a smoke house to create our world famous GWAR-B-Q. We need a GWAR sized meat grinder to make creative new takes on hot dogs and freshly ground hamburgers.”<\/span><\/p>\n
