I just think it was poorly written. My guess is the guy has a coffee shop in Powell so he is there every friggin' morning and night and won't be able to run around town to see a bunch of bands. It looks more like some jokes that were poorly played and he is probably very sorry now that he ever sent it out. I don't know the guy but maybe he actually has a bunch of musician friends? The majority of acts at Comfest are better suited for a coffee shop than Bourbon St. or Bernies. I called to book a show but Hayseed already took the month of March.

Anyone get this email?

To: dogsthatwearcondoms@hotmales.cnn
From: Daryl Strawberry
Subject: Comfest Arbys Time

Hello Jill, this is not the real Daryl Strawberry but I am a local entrepreneur and on the Comfest committe. Also, I am the owner of a series of Arby's on the westside. I am writing you because I want your band, Drowned in Fecal Matter to come and volunteer a shift at one of my poorest performing Arby's. Well, it's not entirely pay free, I will give you a small fry or a small shake (not jamocha because that shit is straight crack) in exchange.

The benefit to volunteering is two fold. First, it benefits me because I have a staff full of alleged humans that have been either robbing me blind or somehow each roast beef sandwich costs roughly -$.46 from the hours of 5-9pm. Secondly, it will benefit you because I will give your band a headlining slot on the Comfest "That Meat is Weird and Artificial" Stage. I am too busy watching my business haemmorage money and cannot get out to see bands (or get away from the horsey sauce IYKWIS). I hope to hear from you by monday the 8th at 5pm.

Thank god that family business who sent that one email a year and a half ago went under. Wow that's a relief.

Donewaiting shut them down. DW's presence in Powell has been huge since 1992 and ever since the fated email of 2010, when DW withdrew their support/votes from the greater Powell area, EspressoYS had no chance to survive.

Wait...never mind. By the above logic every venue in town would be shut down.

An alcohol license would've helped, I'm sure.
