's message, "shortened press release. v. 2 like garbage@" on 02:15:33 07/29/01 Sun
what i liked about the boston press release is how it gives more background on RAINN in general and how it lists the highlights on the event in an actual list, which i think will grabs peoples attention. and that is also how it makes it unique to our event.
i like this version, but i don't know if we need to include the part about the acronym. lol, i like my little quote, but do we need quotes? i think the most important part of this press release you wrote is the band part. i agree we should have more info about the bands, esp. joe 90's connections and fatm's only show in the US. yes. i like that. okay.. what else. i dunno. boston's and this one is actually pretty 'cept for the part about our background. is that really important to have? being a press release, i don't think the people reading it will care that much about US. you know? lol. i'm rambling, i'm sorry! i can't hold a thought.
