This sounds pretty great. I'll be sending our EPK in a couple minutes

[ZillaPersona]

Thanks to those who have submitted already.

Keep them press kits rolling in! I'll be posting the submission deadline very soon, once I speak with the Solow coordinator again.

Just a reminder that you don't have to be from Philadelphia to perform at this thing. We'd love to get some artists from the surrounding areas as well. The more diverse the better.

it's nice to hear something around here going on...tried to get shit poppin in the new England area ...people raised their hands but no reply once we tried to get in motion

and from that event that i turned down in Cambridge not too long ago (cause as far a seen it from my spectrum any way) i'm alone on that and couldn't make it.

but since my job got me set til June. i most likely won't get out their..but def wanna watch how this progresses keep us updated on artists and how things will go down.

[DEFINE]

i'm literally 10 minutes from there. if you guys need more acts, holla, if not, i shall be in attendance with a shitty handful of my shitty cds and what not. i'll also be strapped with numerous party enhancers!

[killsaly]

me and/or my band would be interested in performing. We dont have a "press kit", but believe me, we would rock the shit out of that basement. Unless everyone hates shoegaze mixed with electronic music and sci fi movie samples, performed with a laptop, guitars, synths, and a Macshine.

If you can direct me to any tracks, or a place to hear samples, that would be great as well.

[ZillaPersona]

Thanks to those who have already sent in kits.

One artist brought to my attention that the email address I posted sucks at life, and was bouncing things back.

I'm putting my faith in the mighty Gmail, and all press kits should now be directed to zillapersona AT gmail dot com

If you have sent a press kit and had it bounce back, please redirect it. Sorry for the hassle!

Deadline for submissions is April 14th.

Sent it again just in case it wasn't recieved

I wish to participate in this. I will arrange a press kit immediately. I live in Delaware and lived in center city between 2002-2003. My photographer lives right across in jersey too, so I'm sure he'd love to come and do his thing.

[KyleMistry]

If this went down on the 21st or 22nd, I'd be in for sure. To attend/shoot, at least. Still not good at that whole rapping thang.

Isn't Fatty in the Philly area? Wonder if he knows about this.

Looking forward to listening! As for your photographer, how much does he charge? This is a brand new festival, so the budget is hell of tight.

Shoot me an email, it'd be great to have some more folks shooting the event.

The dates are leaning more toward the 21st/22nd. The coordinator for the festival is really bogged down at the moment, but I'm trying to get final details settled with him soon.

As for Fatty... that's a great question.

Dear Fatty.

I would love to have you submit a press kit, if you are in the area and interested. Or if you're not in the area and still interested.

Love,
Zilla

Hey folks,

I'm going to be making one last call for press kits for Nerdrage.

Due to advertising time restraints, I unfortunately have to pull the deadline back to April 9th.

If you have not submitted a press kit and are interested, you should. We might have some nice surprises in store. zillapersona AT gmail dot com

We will be making all artist announcements April 10th.

Thanks again for your interest in the first of what we hope will be many a Nerdrage!

whether I am performing or whether I am attending, he will hang out probably with a camera and therefor take pictures. If you like some of the pictures I doubt he'll have a problem selling some/all. He usually charges me $50 bucks but we were college roomates so I get a deal.

Just so y'know, I shoot for free.

But then, I'm not a professional.

[Fatty Goodness]

I'm two hours from Philadelphia

but i only have one song and no press kit

If it's good enough, you can just perform that one song for the whole four hours. Do consider!

Nice to see DEFINE on the bill.... I was wondering where you'd got to mate... Jump in on another Torrentz track before the album release.
