But just in case she gets all lonely, she can always count on more than 100 sock monkeys at home to keep her company.

Read the rest here.

Specifically: students attending local high schools (Scottsdale, Mesa, Glendale, Chandler, Tempe, N. Phoenix, ect) as well as the area Community Colleges (all over), and all ASU Campuses.

We need people who will distribute flyers/posters for our events, and let the students know about what we do; work with your school’s Art/Music/Performance/Social Service Clubs to set up fundraisers and other happenings.

Those interested need to be reliable, check their email daily, be able/willing to come to Phoenix sometimes, and willing to learn about the local music and art community.

Volunteers get to come to shows for free, set up their own events, and learn how to organize art & music shows.

Your Hump Day Laughter Break! One suggestion = 1 hour of comedy

And, this is an excert:
JRC, co-owner of the Trunk Space, says he’s always had a thing for time lines. And considering how many bands he’s seen come through the Trunk Space in the past five years (he’s thinking between 3,000 and 4,000 different acts), you’d have to think the man would have to have more than a passing interest in live music.

Now, thanks to an art installation that covers one Trunk Space wall with yarn and thumbtacks, he’s combined those passions in a project called The Grid: Music Edition.

We also MUST thank those who helped make this happen, our friends at theshizz.org, Tommy Cannon, thegoodshows.com, and all the people who scowered thier brains to recall just who plaed in what band when.
It has been AWESOME!
