Certificate for campaigners available for anyone who wants one .. just email caryl@republic-of-loafdom.com with the name as you want it to appear and whether you want US or UK A4 size

CarylB · 26 Apr 2003, 02:11

Campaigners Certs come in at around 53kb btw .. so you'll need a mail allowance that accomodates that ..

hazel · 26 Apr 2003, 02:13

Greavzyboy · 27 Apr 2003, 01:16

The album charts are released tomorrow, (Sunday) just before the single charts.

Fingers crossed!!!

Yours, Greavzyboy

CarylB · 27 Apr 2003, 11:24

Still not sure which thread we're continuing with for our promo activity ..

But we have some ROL mailing list members who aren't on the forum here, and I sent out the Campaign Certs to them yesterday .. got this reply this am:

Thanks so much! Just goes to show I would do anything for......well for love and for him!!!!!!!!
Rachel--whos co-workers are hooked on DIST & CHSIBM!!!!!!!!!!! WOO-HOOOOOOOOO

The word keeps spreading

CarylB · 27 Apr 2003, 14:51

A thought .. we could put A4 picture posters in pubs/clubs/offices and noticeboards/and how about in our cars?

I keep thinking of the thousands of people who will stream into Meat's concerts here in November, but who because they don't come to internet sites and don't hear it on the radio .. grrrrr

.. WOULD buy it now, but won't if they don't know about it

Email caryl@republic-of-loafdom.com for copies

CarylB · 27 Apr 2003, 16:32

I have a portrait poster, landscape, for putting in cars ..

I'm listening to Meat Loaf etc

Let's get the good word out!!

email me for a copy
caryl@republic-of-loafdom.com

Tim · 27 Apr 2003, 16:34

CalylB. Please stay in one topic!! Found these topics of you all over the forum!!!

the Butcher, Tim

CarylB · 27 Apr 2003, 16:54

Well we had 2 threads with R's agreement last week .. The CHSIB HELP WANTED thread and the sticky thread Help Meat Get to Number 1 in the UK ..

and the only reason I'm posting about things to do (and only these) on the new Froget thread is because I want as much coverage and as much help as possible, and have not heard yet whether we are gloing to close the original CHSIB HELP WANTED thread in favour of the new one Meat started.

So I believe I AM on topic .. just trying to ensure we reach people whichever of these threads they go to. And the Sticky thread is an agreed second thread anyway.

original sin · 27 Apr 2003, 17:00

Thanks for the info Caryl...I'm still catching up from my few days off

CarylB, don't think that R. has agreed with it, but maybe i'm wrong, but don't think so. Then, maybe you are on topic, but i could also post in both topics that you were offtopic, but i saved me a lot of time this way, and you know what i mean... so that was my goal!

But 2 topics is great... but still people are posting double. and that is not so good... we have a search function on this board. And Meat Loaf is a special member here.... so don't you ever, ever, ever compare yourself with him!!

The Butcher, Tim

R. · 27 Apr 2003, 17:49

Shut up you lot.

In general I don't like crossposting or double topics at all.
In this particular case it's ok with me.

Now calm down, he's on #4.

R.

CarylB · 27 Apr 2003, 18:16

Thanks R

And I never compare myself to Meat .. he's much prettier

Tim · 27 Apr 2003, 18:22

Allright, for now

I didn't know that. Sorry R.

The Butcher, Tim

Alex · 27 Apr 2003, 19:12

Aye, Meat appears to be in at #4 Album Charts.

This isn't too bad, I know of another album that was released and the record company were not being that useful when it came to promoting. However, the artists believed it was worthy of promotion, so tried and tried, it took a while, but it's quite well known now. It didn't get as high as CHSIB, only got to #9 in the UK charts though...

Anyone remember Bat Out Of Hell?

mariella · 27 Apr 2003, 21:04

Thank you, Amadiere!
This is only just the beginning, we can not let this get us down.
How can a single climb or even stay in the charts if it is not in all stores.
We just have to keep sending those emails and wait for the re-release Meat told us about. This isn't over yet!

Mariella

bat lady · 27 Apr 2003, 21:42

hi bought three copies here in birmingham not well advertised was told one date but went in myself earlier than the date advertised and got three copies please please make it no1 got tickets for nec gig so lookin forward too sein you meat wat a single wat an album please keep on rockin babe you one in a million can't wait til november too see you

CarylB · 27 Apr 2003, 23:49

Heartened by Meatloafisgod's success story with his local paper, I've written to the Sheffield Star, who it seems are co-sponsors of Meat's concerts at Hallam Arena in Shefflied :)

How about we all write to local papers, particularly those in locations where Meat's appearing in November?

Here's an index of on-line listings of newspapers:
http://www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/pa...ilyindex.shtml

Can we cover the key ones between us or are there some areas where he'll be appearing where we don't have a campaigner?

CarylB · 28 Apr 2003, 14:49

I've emailed editors/newsdesks of 50 local papers where their catchment area is within travelling distance of a concert venue. Because this campaign IS a story imo .. of real music and real people inspired by a rock legend

There's also letters pages .. anything which people might see and want to go out and buy the album seems to be useful .. but they are best sent by people in the area .. so could people write on-line or in the post to their local papers letters columns?

Bren · 29 Apr 2003, 22:31

Just thought i'd let you know, i saw an advert for CHSIB album on itv at 8:10 this evening!!!
