Weekend Update, The.

The show at the Jaycee's had an incredible turnout last night. We need to give some mad props to everyone who contributed to the success of the show.
First of all, YOU GUYS! We managed to raise about $700 for the kids in Uganda, not to mention, we had a turnout of nearly 140 people. That is the highest attendance of a show in ages.

I can personally say, the show rocked. The Vidrines, The Passing Lane, The Jim Dandies, The Rape Ape, and IWrestledABearOnce all performed as well a a few other acts. The full show review will be up ASAP as well as some band interviews!! I know, you all have been waiting for those to pop up around here. We also have an extra special prezzie for you kids. We'll have an offical update pretty soon.

I don't know if you saw us, but your lovely, lovely editors were hangin around bothering the bands last night. We found out that there are a TON of you guys supporting us and we think that just kicks ass. Thanks so much guys, keep spreadin' the word.

On that note, a special thanks to Ringo and all the bands putting up with our questions and interviews, we couldn't do it without you guys.

Finally.....BIG BIG NEWS

Hopefully (let's all get our fingers crossed) sometime before Christmas, TMD will go print! We've got a few people helping us out with some stuff, but not quite enough. If you guys have some questions or comments or just want to ask one of us to dinner (we know you do) then hit either Joan or myself up via myspace or playpussyproductions@yahoo.com. Donations are also very appreciated and you will be rewarded very nicely. =)

PS. Here are Natalie's and my Myspaces. Be our friends! I promise we don't bite hard. We're working on a Myspace page for The Monroe Doctrine to keep in touch with ya'll and let you guys know when we've got new stuff for you. Look for our friend request soon. ;)

Be jazzed, be jazzed.

Showwssssss.

This Saturday, head out to the Monroe Jaycee's to enjoy our local music scene's finest. Don't know where to go? Well, lucky for you, we looked up the directions already, so you better be there! Fun stuff!

Speaking of shows, something amazing is happening right here in Monroe.
Thanks to Lauren Broadway, Jesica Bostic, and Brandon Ringo, there will be a show held to help educate people about and raise money for Invisible Children. It'll be held Saturday, November 17th, starting at 5:00 PM, also at the Jaycee's. They need people to help with running the merch booths and setting up, cleaning up, donations, food or anything else that might come up, so if you'd like to volunteer, email the kids at invchildmonroe@gmail.com. It'll be an excellent show and everything we're doing is helping a great cause. We can make a big difference, and all we need is you.

I hope you have an excellent rest of the week, kiddos!
