RAYC, et al,

WTF.  Band members want to bolt.   Without some way for us to confirm our
show they want to do things that have become higher priority.  Like make
money or promote our show at Slim's SF the following Friday where Jello
Biafra is headlining.

Ideally the NB wiki would be updated so the "DIY Party" link is no longer
RED, and from there our name can be found.  Or I need to hear back from
someone I trust.   James Sundquist is the preferred responder, but I trust
RAYC's event organizing skills too.

Good planning includes timely communication.  In this case we don't want
to disappoint our fans who rely on our Confirmed Shows Calendar where this
gig now appears.  Notice of this gig has also been sent out via our fan's
mailing list.

Stan

James,

We have this in our calendar.  This eaail is to re-confirm.  The
Noisebridge wiki entry for this event was still red the last time I
checked, so I am asking by email.

Stan.
