Communique #1 (9/26/2007)

Dear Y2K7 performers,

Please forgive me but I've been having some really serious computer problems and I accidentally sent out one of my earlier revisions of the festival
schedule. It had several errors in it so I'm going to have to do some quick revisions.

Also, as is inevitable, there are several people who have scheduling conflicts I didnt know about and also some people have dropped out since aggreeing to do the festival.

Consequently, I"m going to take a couple of days to hear back from everyone and then put the schedule back together again before I send it out to you all.

Essentially, 95% of the schedule I sent out will remain exactly as it is but I have to do some adjustments. At most, a small few of you may move times by an hour one way or the other.

Please be patient and I apologize for the couple of errors I made in sending out the wrong schedule.


Also, I want to let you know that the wonderful Margaret Noble's father just passed away and she is going to be unable to perform at the festival. Bill and I lost our father this past winter and I know how difficult it is to just go on with normal scheduling in your life.

All of our heartfelt condolences are with Margaret and her family!

Talk to you in a couple of days.

Rick Walker

ps Does anyone know how to reach Greg Williams? I can't find a contact for him anywhere.

Y2K7 essential communique #3

Hi guys and gals,

There are more people who wish to play the festival this year that there are spots for. We already have several people on a waiting list to play.

Every year it is my experience that some people are really excited to play the festival but change their minds or just space out on it by the time of the festival.

Consequently, it is very important that you reconfirm with me that you have been recieving my official emails (this is #3 today) and are still committed to the
festival.

Will you each please take a second to respond with this in the header (without any text message at all - I won't even take time to open them............this is just a confirmation email for my records)


YOUR NAME: Y2K7 LOOPFEST CONFIRMATION


If I haven't heard from you in one week from now, I'll make another attempt to contact you

Two or three days after that, I"ll give away your slot, so please don't forget to email me with a confirmation

I can't wait to see all of you and hear you all play.We have an amazing festival coming up.

yours, gratefully, Rick

Communique #4 (10/1/07)

Hi Everyone,

If you would please take the time to forward your bio information, a single photograph and
your respective website homepage URLs to Krispen Hartung our webmaster so
he can update the website with current information.

Send everything to
info@krispenhartung.com

There are still minor adjustments being made to the final festival schedule and

I don't want to keep sending out numerous revisions, it will still be a day or two

before the final schedule is locked down. Be prepared to adjust your sets

upwards in time by 30 minutes to one hour (or let me know immediately if

you cannot do this).

The POSTER will be made tomorrow. Anyone not confirmed will end up on

the poster so if you need to pull out please contact me ASAP!

yours, Rick
