First we need the okay from Rob and Craig.
Perhaps this time we could have some of the regular members of this board performing WITH their big-name counterparts.

Posted: 12/30/04 at 4:57pmWouldn't it be more cost efficient to just make a donation today? Or, if there really needs to be some BWW representation, maybe organize something where the BWW online "community," (God I hate that construct) could contribute en masse, in a lump sum?

Posted: 12/30/04 at 5:57pmI see where you're coming from Namo but for some of us it's easier to donate time than money. Anyway, this has the potential to raise more money and we can get more people involved.

Posted: 12/30/04 at 5:58pmAnd also, while I'd love to do this through the site, if it's too much for Rob and Craig to take on, it's still something we can do independently.

Posted: 12/30/04 at 6:29pmWe just need Rob and Craig's approbation. Since this is a "special" event, we might be able to get others to handle the various responsibilities.

Posted: 12/30/04 at 10:47pmPatty, there are many performers on this board, both amateur and professional as well as aspiring professionals who are quite talented. I still would like to know exactly what Dollypop meant by "counterparts."

I'll help. And I'd love to perform. Did anyone PM Rob and Craig?
