I'm asking for your help.

If you are interested in basically being a part of an internet street team, please email me at progpowerusa@gmail.com . The plan is to schedule a time one evening at the end of the month to chat & coordinate getting the word out to as many "forums" as possible about the festival. There are a ton of places that I have scanned that have had no mention of this year's festival roster.

This will be an organized process so that we achieve maximum results with minimal individual effort.
 
I'm not really on any other forums so if I were to sign up for new accounts and immediately start proselytizing PPUSA, the forum regulars would smell a rat. I'd suggest anyone that's on any other forums to add info/links/pics to their signatures related to PPUSA and to ramp up posting on other topics in anticipation of the planned assault.

Here's a sig pic I put together.

If the forum doesn't allow animated sig pics, it may just show the top frame which is okay. Otherwise, here's a static image of just the top frame.

I understand your concerns, but how else do you reach these people if you are not a member? The plan is to be perfectly honestly when posting. We post a single thread in the appropriate forum (Off-Topic, Other Music, etc) stating that we are just trying to get the word and apologize for any intrusion. If it gets deleted, then so be it. We will have done our best.

If one posts sells a single ticket, then it is worth it the five minute investment.

Hopefully the other forum moderators will be a cool as the PP forum moderators. In my opinion this is a great way to do it, and if kept to a single thread it should be no problem. Hopefully it sells many tickets.
 
I could maybe do it depending when you plan to do this. I'm out of town every weekend for the next 2 months but I could help out if its after 5pm on a weekday.
 
Glenn I will be at work til about 10 that evening, if u want to email me any major poitns I shoudl know thats fine or Jman can call me sometime this week.
 
Well, I guess we can count "gotta be up for work in the morning early" Aki out, then. :lol:
Yup unfortunately so, been partying this week quite a bit so need a lot of sleep tonight. Would have been fun to be around although I'm not much of a forum poster (--> not a suitable member for an assault team) type of a guy anyway :)
