Hello, everybody. I have big news for you, and I’m putting aside the mixture of the head cold and stomach virus that’s been plaguing me all week to post this very important announcement. You ready? Me niether!
Hang on…
*ties shoes*
Ok, that’s better. Now, if all of our footwear is in order, feast your eyes on Marc’s Super Primo-Bitchin’ Newsflash!
On Saturday, November 10th, 2007 @ Stardust in Orlando, FL, I’ll be doing a show that Jen Vargas and her team will be filming for a possible future DVD release.
How cool is that? Instead of overexplaining to your friends statements like “naw, you really gotta see Marc live to get it”, you can pop in a DVD and show them what they’ve been missing out on! And that isn’t even the best part!
Now, sure, we really want everyone possible to come out and help us pack the room for this show, but wouldn’t it sweeten the deal if I told you that the setlist for the night would be voted on by *you*? This means that even if I don’t come to your town to play shows very often, you get to vote on what songs I’ll play at the show, ensuring that everyone’s getting something that will make them happy in the setlist. How awesome!
Here’s how you do it:
Go to this web address: http://drumz.best.vwh.net/mp/artists/marc2007/ballot.cgi
Rate the songs on a scale from 10 (meaning that song *has* to be performed) to 0 (meaning you don’t want to hear the song on the DVD under any circumstances). I’m sure you can figure out the ratings inbetween. If you haven’t heard a song on the voting ballot before, don’t fret… you can just skip it and move on to the next song! And I’m looking for everyone’s input, even if you just know “Nerdy Girls”, you only own one album, you have only seen me that one time at Universal Studios, or you’ve just heard of me last week. Everybody’s opinion counts. And, if the filming goes well (and if I don’t totally suck eggs that night, of course) we’ll be sticking it on a DVD for your viewing pleasure in the first half of next year! Yippee!
Vote quick, though… the voting cuts off on November 1st at 2 PM EST, as that’s when we’ll have to tally up the votes and turn the top 20 or so into a digestable setlist that will live on through the ages. We’re counting on you to help us make the funnest Marc show we can possibly put on!
While I have your attention though… don’t forget that I’m doing a show on Thursday, September 27th @ Taste in Orlando, FL with Blake Harrington. I’m opening up the show, and Blake is putting on a three-act descent into madness afterwards. It’s gonna be a sight to behold, so please come out if you are able. The show starts at 10 PM, it’s all ages and free!
And, as always, you can buy copies of my albums at either myspace.com/marcwithac or right here on marcwithac.com. All transactions are mega-secure through PayPal. Plus, the albums are really, really cheap. That makes everybody happy, but I think you’ll like the songs on the albums too! I mean, c’mon… my newest album, Normal Bias, is only like five bucks. You can’t beat that with a stick!
At any rate, please take a few minutes and help us vote for the 11/10/07 setlist. Thanks for reading, and I hope to see each and every one of you soon!
Crawling back into bed now,
Marc
