a good clean election

[Chris Corsale]

Hey Eli Fans,

Maybe you just can't wait to hit the voting booth, or maybe you're
nervous and need a couple of practice runs. Either way, we've got you
covered.

Eli Jones is a contender to win a performing slot and a cash prize in
the First Annual Chicago Bluegrass And Blues Festival, and we need
your votes! No need to register for anything or enter your email
address; just click on this link (every day!) and vote for Eli Jones.
Or wait....our advisers tell us it's against the rules of our 501(c)3
status to tell you who to vote for. But what do they know? VOTE ELI!

Click here, or copy & paste this address into your web browser:

and help us get on the bill! Friends, our opponents in this contest
(all 74 of them) have served Chicago's music scene with bravery, and
for that we owe them our gratitude and our respect. But the fact of
the matter is that Eli Jones has the experience, the values and the
know-how to unite the CBGBFestival audience in appreciation of Stef's
voice and our powerhouse horn section. And we've never bowed to the
ClearChannel lobbyists that have had a stranglehold on the music scene
for too long. This election isn't about us; it's about YOU.

Okay, you sick of that yet? Let's move on. But before we do: VOTE
OFTEN (this is Chicago, right?). You can vote once daily until October
16th, so get in there and click it up for us!

Lastly, tons of of love to our audiences at Blu 47, the Yacht Club,
and Mahoney's - we've had some great shows in the past week. Our next
few shows:

HALLOWEEN IN TERRE HAUTE!
Fri 10/31 @ The Verve
Terre Haute, IN
following an appearance on the 5pm NBC News

Sat 11/1 @ Friends & Co.
Charleston IL

Fri 11/7 @ Fitzgerald's
Berwyn, IL
CBGB Festival Pre-Party!

See you at the shows. And vote for us. And make sure you're registered
to vote on Nov 4th!

Love,
Eli
