likethebeerI can't believe I've not written more about Swiss Miss lately, although really we've been setting up for this upcoming show, so maybe that's why. The Breaking the Habit show is this weekend. I'm feeling better about my participation in the actual show this year (although I still wasn't there for Sunday's take down; in my defense, we didn't know it would only take 2 hours or so to do the whole thing). And, oh, although I had the same problem yesterday that I was afraid I would have: I still can't make decisions for shit.
We've "plastered" Mad-town (I was only around for one of those events, so I don't know how much further plastering has occurred, although I'm sure that Swiss Miss Cheivous was responsible for quite a bit of it).
We may have had an artist flip out on us and not show up, and she was designated for her own room (only 10 artists have their own rooms). Talking w/nadine_a earlier last night, I suggested that we just bring in our own personal art to fill the spaces if we feel like it's looking too sparse; we could just put "NFS" signs on them. That gave nadine_a the idea for a Plan B if the artist has permanently flaked out (hopefully flaked and not, like, got into a car crash or something). Plan B is to fill the room w/our own personal possesssions of art work. I think jujupees and wi_c could fill a room no problem.
Anyway, so I"m v. happy I had the idea and that we've got a Plan B.
Some of the labels for the artists are already done, which is amazing b/c we were still doing them up to the time of the show last year. I write "we" when I mean the Swiss Miss, although it was really jujupees who was doing most of them. Shit, I just remember her sitting in our private suite area while she was typing and tired and it just looked painful for her. I'm going to stop reliving those times right now.
And, DAMN, they're announcing Breaking the Habit on Wisc. Public Radio in the mornings, at least. That is so frickin' weird to hear that.
I also saw a piece on Breaking the Habit in our little local paper. About half the para., it feels like, is about Swiss Miss, who, like, "deny that they have anything to do with Con Agra Foods, which manufactures Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate...." He didn't use the word "deny" but it sounded sort of like that. Like we run around and say, "No! We have nothing to do with Con Agra! I told you before and I'll tell you again!"
Anyway, I'm sure that the little old ladies in town will be pissed that we didn't take out an ad in the local paper, but we sent them a press release. We just forgot the ad, that's all.
All right, on to worky worky.
