So I felt like I owed it to the cast of Laramie to write a post about how impactful the play was and about how perfectly everyone played their roles, but I realised that there are no words that can do any piece of that play justice. It was beyond anything I have witnessed, and Fred Phelps is really going up against something stronger than he can

Avery was quite good.

Wanna get together a really big benefit concert type thing? Like, really big?

[ewicfahbah]

sure.
but how are we gonna make it really big?

[badassmuthafuka]

If we have a cause, like giving the money to some gay rights organization, then I think we can get the Fieldhouse at South for free, which is what I want. So there's a big, easy-access place. How to fill it? Get a shit-load of (popular) bands and make a low ticket price. I'm going to contact as many bigger local bands as possible (definetly Furvis), and I also want to send out emails to nation wide bands (The Walkmen, Decemberists, etc.). I mean, it's worth a shot. Does the last Friday of school before December break work for you?

yeah they did laramie project at my school too and it was like absolutely amazing. organizing a big concert like that would be awesome... i'd totally come. if you need any help or anything let me know, i'd love to be a part of it.

That play was so powerful. Especially the part about his funeral.
I guess the biggest help would be advertisement, but I don't even know if it's going to happen yet. My band doesn't even know my idea yet. I appreciate the offer, though :)

[jujubee_14]

yep no prob... just keep me updated
and yeah... the funeral part was definitely powerful... also when they made the announcement to the reporters that he died and the mother was talking, i was a mess during that part

My friend Avery played the part of the guy announcing his death, and he did such a realistic job. It was devastating. And the part where Matt's father made his speech about how he was letting Aaron live.

kay so I'm really getting into this whole commenting several days after you've posted thing. but this is actually responding to your last comment.

commence comment NOW:
yes, we did kinda stop talking, didn't we? and yeah, next time I'm in Newton, which will probably be in the near future, we SHOULD hang out. who are you hang-outtable with? I'd love to see you but don't wanna cause mad awk-ness.

right.

Wow, I think I missed this.

I'm friends with Justin again, and aren't you friends with Jimmy? 'Cause he's been my best friend for years. Come by soon, though. Let's not have this be one of those things we talk about and never happens.
