scheme for votes

so we bought a bunch of cheap beer with some of the band fund and went to Michael's old Co-Op where he used to live. Its like an ewok village for college kids where they take turns cooking and cleaning for each other.

We printed out simple instructions for how to vote and told anyone within earshot that if they voted for us we would give them a beer. It worked pretty well. We are now in 4th place and plan on going back to the Co-op tonight to post up at a giant party with laptops with wireless connections.

Well see how it goes.

But talk about an interesting experience. This little living situation is like a hedonistic tree house. One dude was walking around completely naked. I was surprised at my lack of being able to carry on a conversation with a dude with his schlong in plain sight. He appeared later with some sort of tool belt thing with pockets. I guess carrying around important things would be difficult naked.

Another guy was wheeling around a wooden arcade frame he was working on, which I found pretty cool. Its a wild little place. The bulk of the people we ran into were on something from either mushrooms or acid. But Nice kids. Smelly nice kids.

We know we cant win this competition but we want to blow past the fucker that keeps stealing 4th from us. So thats our goal. We already have made connection with the winner (most likely the winner) and they are open to playing a show with us so despite us not winning this thing we still are getting something out of it... Connections baby.
