SHM will donate 100% of the proceeds to the Mayor’s Fund To Advance New York City, Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund and Save The Children.

SHM helped create an easy to follow guide for the extended weekend; very helpful for out-of-towners, yet very entertaining for everyone. The official guide (peep it here) includes performance info, artist bios, transportation info and site seeing suggestions (non New Yorkers need to know how to get around) and even how to properly tie the knot for bow ties (don’t act like you can) in preparation for tonight’s Black Tie Rave. You can also score some SHM gear at their Pop Up Store on 5th Avenue.
