Important message from the TGR team
The TGR forums are at the core of what this company stands for – skiers and snowboarders not only living the dream and getting after it, but also forming a true community. You represent the thriving culture and lifestyle that surrounds this industry, and we want to thank you for helping make this company what it is today.
Every year we see posts on here about our friends, family and fellow skiers/riders falling into hard times – injuries on the slopes, serious health issues, even the loss of a loved one in the mountains. We at TGR see this and, like the rest of you, hate it. This year, we have decided that we want to do our part to help those in need.
We want to let you all know about the creation of our new Maggot Fund. For certain stops on our TGR tour, we have set up a unique discount code – for every ticket sold using this code on our online ticket system, we will donate between 10-25% of the ticket price to the Maggot Fund. At the end of the season, we will reach back through the forums to choose a worthy cause/person/family to donate the funds to. Our goal is to raise significant dollars by the end of the tour and help one of us to continue living the dream.
We are counting on you to help spread the word about this program to your friends and family and through your personal networks. On our tour event pages, we have included a “MF” logo where this coupon code will work. When you buy tickets to one of these shows using our online system, when prompted, simply enter the code “change05” and your ticket purchase will help make a difference for someone in our community this year. Remember, the more people we get to use the code, the more money we will contribute, so we appreciate your efforts in promoting this cause.
Thanks again for your support over the years – we can’t wait to see you all at your local premiere of One For The Road.

Thanks guys! I think this is going to be a cool thing for all of us! I just watched the final cut of One for the Road. It is looking pretty sick. I will see if I can get you guys a sneak preview of a seg. Gotta convince the rest of the boys! See you guys on the road!

Good stuff.
Local Golden, BC area rep for Bluehouse Skis. Shoot me a PM if you'd like to try a pair when you're in the area!

Nice. Stickied. You guys FKNA rawk!!!!!
The blues has always been about taking your problems and turning them into something you can dance to, drink to and fuck to.
We're certainly not a blues band in any kind of purest sense, but to me Rock and Roll has always had it's roots in that tradition.

Jay, the Boston shows will definitely be MF shows - we will get that up once tickets go on sale there (which should be pretty soon). We will be adding other MF shows for sure so keep your eyes out.

TGR is meatland!
Edit: I went straight to the tour site to buy a ticket, but after looking through the schedule several times, I was unable to find a Missoula show listed.
I hope I'm just to stoned to find it, because if TGR doesn't stop in Missoula, that would not be meatland.
