Hey everybody,
This year, we’re trying something a little different at the Greek Festival in EHT. For those of you who don’t know, the festival is a huge event that we hold every year at my church, and it raises a ton of money for charity and for the church community. There are thousands of people that attend the festival every year, and it has become a big event that locals look forward to the start of every summer.
To try and get even more people this year, I’m organizing a music festival that will take place on the church grounds on Saturday and Sunday of the festival. It will be an all day event, and we’re trying to get as many bands as possible to participate. We’ve cleverly, and campily, named this event the Moussakapalooza! If you’d like more information about it, you can contact me directly, or mail me at:
The event will be on Saturday June 6th, & Sunday June 7th.
Let any bands that you know who you’d want to see play that this is a great opportunity for them to come play in front of a great crowd, with some good publicity behind the event. We will also have professional sound and monitoring, and I will also be digitally recording performances, so bands will be assured to sound their best! Bands will not be paid, however, they’ll be given the opportunity to sell merch, and we might even pull some bands to play the main taverna, which will have hundreds of people in it at any given time during the day. They can also take pride in the fact that they are helping to raise money for important charities, and a church that does a lot of good things for the surrounding community. Please, spread the word so that this turns into a successful event, and one that the church will bring back every year! There aren’t too many local venues for original music any more, and this could be a great one for years to come. Please help me get the word out there. Thanks!

I lost to a girl…
I went on a pool shooting date last night… These are usually fun for me because I used to play a whole lotta pool when I was younger, as we had a table in our house. I’d shoot at least 4 to 5 games every day with a friend after I came home on the bus. Usually these dates all turn out the same way.
I was beaten 6 games to 5 last night, by a 5’1” girl who could barely reach over the table to line up a shot.
I knew there’d probably be an issue when she showed up with her own bag of cues, and EVERYbody in the pool hall was like, “Maria! What’s up! We haven’t seen you in over a week! What’s going on??”
I’m clearly better though. It was a fluke. I haven’t shot pool in months when obviously she’s in there every day of her life, for hours on end. I’m not bitter at all. It’s not like I go home and think about how a girl, who couldn’t reach over the table with her cue, could beat me in a series of pool. It’s not like I sit up at night thinking about how I missed easy shots to end 2 games that would have put me on top by a commanding margin. Not at all.
