Updates!

Hey everyone,

I hope your Thanksgiving was great! I've been looking at a few of my notes, and here are a few questions & comments I have:

Jessie: Did the SAC donate the money for the bakesale or lend it to us? Do we have to reimburse? Also, did you look into the movie passes thing?

Kristin: You mentioned in one of the e-mail messages something about another Esthema. Is that all taken care of? Also, how are you doing with the bios? Did you get mine and everyone else's? I looked again, and it's in one of the messages I sent. You have to click and expand the message though. Finally, were you able to work something out with the diversity group like you had planned?

Tex: Great job man with this food situation. I feel like I haven't told you that yet. What's the deal with the shakes? As a matter of fact, what's the deal with the whole food situation currently?

Everyone: Please log into Facebook and invite all of your friends on the event. We are all admins now so everyone reading this should be able to. It might take a little time if you have a lot of friends, but it's worth it to spread the word around. Also, log in to our MySpace account, and add as many friends as you can.

I just got my hands on a $15 iTunes card that I really don't need. Maybe we can put together a list of the things (including Jessie's free music downloads) that we can either give away or something at the show. We can decide what to do with the stuff after we know what we have to work with?

Finally, below is the message I just sent to Andy from Esthema with some details that concern the bands. You might want to forward it to your bands if you haven't let them know this information already:

Andy,

Hey man. Here are a few updates regarding the Battle of the B.E.A.T.:

We are having a bakesale on Wednesday (12/23) during the day at the Mezzanine to promote our show. We will also be playing all the bands' music in the background. Please help promote this event, for that is the first day we will have the tickets.

We are still waiting for the postcards to arrive, but you will get a bunch as soon as they are shipped.

The group decided that every band needs to have at least 100 items to sell at the merch table on the night of the show, to make things fair for everyone. We will handle merch sales, and the B.E.A.T. will collect 30%. In order to promote ticket sales, we will also be offering $1 off merch table purchases with tickets bought in advance.

Please have everyone become our MySpace friend and request an invite on our Facebook event. Help spread the word.

Finally, please e-mail all your fans and everyone you can think of, reminding them that you need their votes on the night of the show to win.

I hope all of this cool with you. Get back to me. Ttys!

Thanks everyone. Great job with everything. I can't stress that enough. See you Tuesday for our bake party! Woohooooo!!!!!!

Hey Karim-

We have $50 from the SAC for the bake supplies, and we don't have to give that back.
