Goin' to the Virgin Festival!

Today Lisa won tickets to the Virgin Festival on August 10th!!!

She called into a local radio station to explain International My Chemical Romance Day to them and gave a nice plug for Music Saves Lives. They gave her tickets (originally) to a concert with Poison and Sebastian Bach (the DJ said it was the closest concert to MCR he had tickets for?)... Blah! She decided that we wouldn't even use them and contacted the station to say thanks but no thanks and they offered her Virgin Fest instead!!!

Woo Hoo!! We're gonna see Nine Inch Nails, Kanye, Iggy Pop (and the Stooges, but I only care about Iggy), She and Him (Zooey!!!), Taking Back Sunday (Lisa's psyched) and Paramore! Is that the weirdest line-up in history or what??

Public Service announcement: Please check out Music Saves Lives. They are really trying to get people to get involved in blood donation (hey, if I can do it you can do it) and getting registered for the Bone Marrow Registry.

The Bone Marrow Registry was even easier than giving blood, they just have you swab the inside of your cheek to type you. We spoke with Russell from their organization in Richmond recently and he said that in 5 years of being in the registry he's not been matched yet. But the more people we get in the more chance there is of finding matches for those who need them!

Especially hit them up if you're going to Warped Tour, they are giving out VIP passes for people who sign up!!
