Global Inheritance traveled up the I-5 to beautiful San Francisco to host the TRASHed :: Recycling Store at the first annual Treasure Island Music Festival.


You could not have picked a better place in San Francisco to host a festival. People enjoyed the cityscape views as they jammed out to Thievery Corporation, M.I.A., Gotan Project, Modest Mouse, Spoon, and many other musicians.


The TRASHed :: Recycling Store recruited a recycling army of thousands to insure that the festival grounds were spotless. Motivated individuals exchanged their empty water bottles, cans, and biodegradable beverage cups for autographed band merchandise, festival t-shirts, Netflix memberships, VitaminWater, Logitech iPod speakers, badges to Noise Pop 2008, free tickets to upcoming Bay Area shows and much much more!

A huge thank you to the Stacy, Mike and the Noise Pop/Another Planet staff who were outstanding all weekend long! Big props to Whitney Zimmerman, Ryan Carney, and friends who donated their time/sweat to guarantee a successful campaign. Lastly, we thank the Bay Area who came out and showed us how it's done... Recycling that is!
