in Girlyman Live CD Contest on Random Musings
very cool idea!
My wife and I felt the same - more people need to feel the Girly-Love! after introducing many of our friends to the band's recorded music, we felt our friends (and us) needed more. We had traveled from Oklahoma to Nebraska to see them and then Oklahoma to Missouri when we figured, for the $$$ we are spending on the road, maybe we can talk them into coming here! So we found a space with a stage at a brand new music school in town (Norman Institute for the Performing Arts) and convinced their booking agent that we could pull off a show even though we don't really do this kind of thing.
We had a great show with over 100 people and sold tons of merch. We made enough to cover our costs and give some to NIPA who had graciously offered their place for free.
We are now in the beginning stages of helping some friends in New Orleans (who came up for our show) do the same thing.
As far as the CD giveaway, I've already ordered one for us and a second to give away. If we ended up with yet another, we'd just pass it along to someone new!

Awesome story, thanks for sharing it, and by virtue of this comment, submitting your entry. You have the distinction of being first, so you're currently assured of a CD, unless 10 other people top your story. :-)
