I am sorry to ask it but would the folks discussing the Athens arrangements for this coming weekend re-post or post in further detail the information surrounding this get[-]together??
many thanks

Hello. My name is Lance Bangs, and the band and Jeepster have commisioned me to make the music video for "dirty dream #2." We will be filming in Athens, Georgia the weekend of Saturday December 12th and Sunday the 13th. All footage will be shot during daylight hours, from 10 A.M. to dusk at 5:30 P.M. List members are invited to come be featured in the footage. THE INITIAL INVITATION Twenty-five persons are needed. The intention is that each person featured will appear in an uncut ten second segment of film which will fade to black before bringing up the next person, filling the length of the song. We may be able to provide one night of lodging to people coming from outside of the area, but unfortunately can not pay people for appearing, as this is a rather simple production. Your participation should be fun, as we are filming flattering portraits of each of you engaged in some sort of charming and surreal entanglement or escapade. You needn't look anything like the sort of people that usually appear in videos, we want you because you care about the band and are an interesting person. Awkwardness and spastic qualities a plus. Come as you are. We will be filming mostly outdoors to take advantage of the gorgeous winter light here in Athens. We will need to begin early both days, as it gets dark around 6 pm. We are shooting on motion picture film, which invariably leads to some time waiting around while setting things up, so your patience is requested. The band will not be present at the filming, but Athens is a wonderfull town to visit on it's own merit, and perhaps meeting up with other list members and fans is incentive enough. If you are interested and can commit to being in Athens on the 12th and 13th, please respond to me at this account. DETAILS: I live in a schoolhouse/gymnasium at 350 Meigs St between Finley and Pope Sts. The telephone number is 706.369.9043 I would imagine that www.yahoo.com's map function should be able to get you here from wherever. We will meet up at ten a.m. to get to know each other and discuss the options for each person's filming. If you are with a friend and would prefer, we can shoot you in pairs. If you are up for it there are some small scale stunts possible, some charming little bizarre pieces for the daring, as well as some straightforward portraiture for the shy. Lying in grass, waving from a treehouse, etc. If you get in later on Saturday there will be someone at the house co-ordinating and we will come back every so often. If you can only come Sunday, we can work around that as well. It may get a bit boring as we are shooting on motion picture film which requires time taking light readings, measuring focus, setting up shots, etc. However the mix of people should be good, as fans are coming in from all over the southeast to take part. Please bring several changes of clothes, without tradmearked logo's featured prominently (no giant nike swooshes or tazmanian devils, but you knew that as a general rule in life already, right?) The response so far has been tremendous, and there are still a few spaces available, so let us know if you would like to join us.
