Urgent: could really use some help here
 

My oldest daughter, who many of you have met at the races from time to time, is in a band (all 9th & 10th graders at Mahopac HS). They are pretty well known and established in this area. Right now they are in a battle to play at Z100's Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden on Dec 7th. but they need to get the most votes out of the five finalists. They beat out 250 bands to make it this far and are down to the final five. The gig goes to the band that gets the most votes.

While the contest is technically supposed to be for amatures, they are unfortunately up against some ringers... bands that have professional publicists... using 24hr Twitter feeds to solicit votes.. etc... These kids just have us (the parents). These guys deserve to be there... They devote a tremendous amount of time (as well as donating their earnings) to charitable causes... which is one of the things they are known for.

I have passed the link around on facebook and the response has been great but I need additional help..... we were within 6 votes of the lead but are now back about 200 votes of the leader. The voting goes through to midnight on Nov 29th. These kids really deserve to have this break. with out something drastic they will not catch up. If you have voted already we greatly appreciate it....

There is strength in numbers and I know if there is a big enough response from Classracer members they can pull with in striking distance in no time....

So.... Please do me a favor & click on link below…. Scroll down to the band called "Dead End"…. And hit the “Demand It” button to vote for them..... it might ask you for a zip code for a location.... and an email address for the vote to count.

When you vote... post your name here.... cause I owe ya one.

BTW: - if everyone can also have their spouse or a friend vote also it will double the # of votes.... THANKS !!!!!

Can I vote more than once? (No jokes - I'm serious!)
Also, does Z100 have an internet feed so we can listen on the 7th?

Good Luck!

Done!!! For some reason when I copied and pasted your first post the link came up different and after I realized it I couldn't get back in to edit my post so I had to repost the right link. Anyways, I hope it helps tell your daughter and her band good luck from Afghanistan.
