In the summer of 2011 Catherine (oberstingwithconor) and I held our first Tumblr meetup. It was a success with good people, good food, and good times!
This year, I'd like to see even more people!! This time we're going to start saving EARLY instead of scrambling at the last minute to find money. PLEASE DONATE TO OUR CAUSE! We'd like to out-do ourselves and it's going to be pretty hard since the prizes were so great and the Conor cupcakes were so amazing. BUT WE CAN TRY! Click the button below to donate!
“You who pinned all of the medals on all those boys from Omaha Beach.”

Omaha Beach is the code name for one of the sectors of the Allied invasion of occupied France at Normandy, during WWII.

I know a lot of you follow me because you enjoy my music. I really want my band Freezerburn to play this music festival in Omaha called Maha. Desaparecidos is headlining, and there’s a ton of awesome bands involved. I emailed the festival a little while ago asking to play, but I’m from all the way in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Omaha music scene is all about helping out independent artists. Maybe if a bunch of people contacted the good people running the festival and told them that they’d love to see us play the show, they’d be more interested. I’m talking emails, tweets, any way you can figure how to tell them how great you think we are.
If you reblog this I’ll send you a free copy of China Blue’s The Skeleton Tree EP* (my solo effort)
*While supplies last
I love each and every one of you!
