Bummerfest Wrap
The Bummer Olympics have come to a close. Thanks to the volunteers and bands who made it happen and everybody who came out to support local music and The Placebo.
We’re totally in awe of Nancy Courtemanche’s contributions in memory of her son Robb Rierdan. She fed the bands, designed and funded the banners and let us display Robb’s amazing art. In case you didn’t hear, Nancy has also set up a fund to help deserving local bands go on tour. If you need (really need, cuz your request will be checked out) funds or equipment to get your band on the road, call her at 407-6968.
People who were at Bummerfest 2006: If you have any photos or wrote a review or something, we wanna see it! We can either put it up on our website or link to it, your choice. Comment here or send email to gimme_info[at]theplacebo.net (Let us know what name we should use to credit your stuff.)
Got something else to say? Talk about it on The Placebo Forums. There’s a Bummerfest thread for you to talk about what you liked, what you thought needed work, who rocked, who had the best dance moves, all that. You know we’re going to do this again next year, right? Get involved! It’s your scene, take care of it.
