20 Days To Put On A LIve New York Show!

Ok so the first day of really trying to get a show on in New York has kind of been and gone, and some interesting things have happened. But not necessarily good.

Many of you may remember that I'm trying to put on a live show in New York in 20 Days using just the internet and the generosity of others. That means somehow I need to find a producer and a venue and all the fancy trimmings in what is now closer to 19 days! AH!

Is it possible-
Doubters say no, but I've always been one to doubt a doubter, so I'll say yes!

First off the bad news, sadly there is already bad news.
The original plan was to have Jarrod and Matt on board as cast members, however (and it's all cool peeps, I'm not gonna pull a Jarrod and make them quit the trip!) they would rather not 'work' while on holiday. And that's fine. Because you've got to respect peoples wishes. See everyone there is todays life lesson.

I however still think it would be crazy/cool/awesome/amazing if I could get a show on in New York with fancy guests, and Jarrod and Matt said they would come and watch (because seriously how often do your friends appear in a show in New York and you coincidently happen to be there at the same time!) Matt also shot gunned filming the performance- which means we can broadcast it to the fans on YouTube...yay!

So there was the bad news, the medium news (aka not good but not bad)
Still no venue. It's only been one day so word can't have spread that much- but we need to get that word spreading. A lot of people have said to me 'Oh I don't have NY contacts'...but! You do have contacts! Spread the word people- it's the whole tell 9 people. Eventually one of the people that your friends friends friend may tell might own a club with an open mic night which we can kind of turn into a closed mic night for a night! Who knows! Spread the word- help lend a hand. Put this in your Facebook status:

Can you help Sean the Aussie Fan get a live show in NY in 19 days? http://seantheaussiefan.blogspot.com

The good news- because we've got some good news. And it's all about that spreading thing. My good friend Naomi who has come to see my live shows before has put in a good word about us on her blog- it's a puppetry blog, but luckily our show has featured some puppetry and some friends so we can plug this a lil. Here's her lovely posting that she made about the idea: http://puppetsinmelbourne.com.au/index.php/blog/2008/11/24/across-oceans

Guess what- you can blog about us to!
Link to our videos, link to the blog, talk about the crazy plan. Spread the word people- I NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE THIS COME TRUE!!!!

And I feel it really could work!

So let's keep it up.

PS: I'm also thinking of the show name being something like this:

Sean Bryan
(The Aussie Fan Of [title of show])
In
SUPER FANS
MESSAGE BOARDS
And An
ECONOMIC CRISIS
(Or my trip to New York)

Tomorrow's mission will be for me to create a new ep about the project and spread the word more.

I will also be daily blogging about this- so stay tuned!!!
