The Josh and Pete Band: Jersey Shows finals and EP fund

(This is a slightly altered version of the actual press release.)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 25, 2010

The Josh and Pete Band's sunny harmonies, driving rhythms, and unpredictable sense of humor have gotten them an ever-expanding fan base and rave reviews in Metro, Phrequency, 215 Magazine, and other local publications. Now, the West Philly-based foursome have two big news items to share with you.

THE JOSH AND PETE BAND IN THE JERSEY SHOWS FINALS

The Josh and Pete Band have made it all the way to finals of Jersey Shows' $10,000 Philly Showdown! The date is Saturday, July 24th. The venue is the Trocadero -- the Mainstage, not the Balcony. The Josh and Pete Band could win as much as $5,000 cash! The guys could use all the support they can get. Advance ticket sales count towards the band's success!

HELP THE JOSH AND PETE BAND RECORD AN EP AND GET... A DATE?

You know the story...band wants to make its first professional record. Band won't sit around and wait for a label to come along and fund the project. Band asks fans for help -- and offers rewards for donations.

The Josh and Pete Band plan to start recording in August, so they need their fans' help! In return, they will offer the following "Thank You" gifts:

$0 to 10 - Josh and Pete Band sticker
$10 to 20 - above + Demo CD
$20 to 40 - all of the above + your name on special "Thank You" page of the professional CD (and Josh and Pete Band 9th Grade CD Series)
$40 to 80 - all of the above + ticket to the Trocadero show
$80 to 150 - all of the above + free copy of the professional CD
$150 to 300 - all of the above + custom-made Josh and Pete Band T-Shirts

...and finally...

$300 or more - all of the above PLUS a date with any band member -- or all! (You can donate the date, too - give The Josh and Pete Band to your daughters, your aunts, your grandmothers, even your pets!)

If that's not a story, I don't know what is.
