[Blacklabcollective] Proposal for help... Plz read

[Lindsay Kasting]

What about if we threw them some money and did a fundraiser to recoup
whatever we can from what we give? We had some pretty real goals for that
money, including boarding up that smashed window/improving the appearance
of the outside of the space; finishing soundproofing; fixing some of the
fucked flooring; and painting that nasty bathroom. If there's a time
restraint maybe we could toss em some money now and plan a fundraiser for
as soon as possible? I'm just siting down to figure out all our rent &
bills & budgeting now, i finally made it to the bank with that movie check.

Megan, would you wanna bottomline the fundraiser if I bottomlined the
repairs? Would dec 18 be too soon after you're back? The next weekend is
christmas, so that wouldn't work. We can try to line up some sweet drawing
bands, Jakob & Legs sound like they're interested too. I think we could
probably make at least $200 bucks or even more from a fundraiser and would
be down to toss ya'll that much if we have a plan to recoup it.

What does everyone think of that?
