Original Story:
This week is the stretch drive for getting petitions signed and ready for City Clerk Jimmy Farina. As such here is some news from Tom Vincent's campaign in an effort to get on the ballot:Petition Signing Event
Monday, March 16th, 2009
The Goldhawk Lounge, back room
936 Park Avenue (at 10th Street)
Hoboken, NJ
201 420-7989
We're going into the home stretch of the petition drive. I've been hitting the streets and I'm getting a very positive response, it seems like this town is hungry for new blood (but not in a vampire-ish way at all).
There's lots of work to do and I can't possibly get to everyone who has expressed interest in signing, so the only responsible thing to do is throw a party. Not a party as such, no cake or balloons, but a petition-signing event with music. And a rally of sorts. So if you'd like to know more about what this campaign is about, and especially if you'd like to sign a petition and open this race up, stop by and introduce yourself. I'll bring the pens and petitions.
This thing is coming together very quickly, so the details may change, but so far I've got:
Boo Reiners (The Demolition String Band and lots of other musical confabulations) David Schramm, unconfirmed (The Schramms, Kate Jacobs, The Eve of Deconstruction). Both terrific players to provide a little music and energy because signing petitions can get tiresome as the night goes on.
