>>Apparently RAINN (or shall I say Scott) is planning

>>having a gay/lesbian
>>party for RAINN that same night, same time, SAME
>>LOCATION and I was NEVER
>>notified. It's sponsored by 2 gay magazines. I didn't
>>have a problem with
>>that...we could get together (Scott told the guy that
>>our parties could
>>become one...I was still not notified). So I finally
>>get in contact with
>>Peter. First he tells me that $30 or $25 at the door
>>was too much. I told
>>him we needed cash to cover the $2,000 for venue
>>rental he told me that the
>>same venue would give him the place FOR FREE. He
>>wanted to charge $15 at the
>>door. So then I told him the deal for our raffles and
>>auctions and what not
>>and he goes "Well that's not what we had in plan for
>>our party."
>>Then he says to me "Listen, talk to Scott. Ask him
>>which party he wants to
>>have and then that's it". Therefore guys...if Scott
>>doesn't want us running
>>the party and would rather have the party with
>>Atlantic Records (who are so
>>popular and can get the venue for free) then Tori's
>>fans...the people this
>>party was directed to for hosting and attending WILL
>>BE NO MORE!
>>How does everyone feel now eh? I feel like shit -- I
>>have been crying for
>>about an hour now not knowing what to do. I have put
>>my heart and soul into
>>this whole thing and now it might be gone just like
>>that. This Atlantic guy
>>doesn't HAVE A GOAL TO MEET! He will only be making $$
>>for RAINN by the door
>>charge...that's it! I feel like a failure and I just
>>don't know what to do.
>>This meant so much to me.
