Jim Alfredson Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I think my next thread will be: Insulting All the People That Alfredson Depends Upon to Make A Living. let's see - well, actually, I think we've already done that - No, there are a lot of club owners out there.

Jim Alfredson Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 BTW, I think I fixed the stupid shipping charges. Hopefully. Between that and trying to figure out why the new Big O Store at the Big O Records site is adding sales tax to non-Michigan orders, it's been a fun morning of code.

medjuck Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I've just donated (plus shipping), but I'm curious as to what the immediate impetus for the pledge drive was -- or did Allen just have too much coffee this morning?

Kalo Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Just wrote Jim a check - hope that works too. It's going in the mail in about half an hour when I go out. Haven't contributed in a while & it felt good to do so. I'd like to contribute via check, too. Where do I send it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I don't want to come on like a radio fundraiser, but this is a great place, and we should all do what we can to keep it going. Jim took a lot of us in when the BN Board folded, and I think that we should help him (and ourselves) out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 all right, I'll post this in the offering area as well - I'll sell any volume of Devilin Tune (1-4) for $35 shipped and donate $10 of that to this site - offer holds for about a day, or unless I get too many orders - I figure I can spare about 6 volumes - email me at alowe@maine.rr.com lets do paypal if we can - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'd like to suggest that we don't need a list of "pledges" for Allen Lowe to hound each month. Jim says he hates asking for money, and that's understandable. The simple answer is for someone - hint hint, Allen - to post a new thread each month soliciting donations, with the paypal info/mailing address. You may not get the same people but I would bet that you'd get a steady stream of donations that would come close to covering the monthly expense. I think what we should really do is help the band retire the debt from the last CD. I'd suggest Jim put together a CD worth of tracks -maybe some live ones - available for download with a minimum donation of $15, but that might hinder the band's next project.

Joe G Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I believe that it's possible to set up an automatic monthly credit card payment to the site if someone wants to go that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I gave 14.92 this time because of (sniff, sniff, getting weepy) all of the wonderful musical discoveries I've made on this board. So at what total does Allen drop his pants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoGrubb Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I contributed a couple of months ago. But, just for the hell of it, is this a spoof or a bonifide Organissimo fund drive? A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 but all seriousness aside, as Steve Allen used to say, it's a brand new day - Jim, can you give us a tally? or are you worried about the IRS? pony up, boys and girls - if you can find a pony - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to separate the income, since this telethon is coinciding with the opening of the Big O Store (our record label store) and those sales are going to the same Paypal account. I gotta do some math, but I would say it's at least $300 at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
