Section Leader Letter

 

 

Go to the top of Bag #16

…but is it art?

February 15, 1993

Dear Section Leader,
Hello Boys! In preparation for the meeting scheduled on Wednesday March 3rd at 8pm I have had the old Mac spit out a roster for each of your sections. Before the meeting please verify the addresses and phone #'s and whether each Bagger will participate in this year's extravaganza. Write down any requests or suggestions they may have regarding the show so that we may consider them at the meeting. Those of you who have co-leaders in your section (indicated by the L) should contact each other and split the calls or something. If you can't attend the meeting, call me and arrange for an alternate from your section.
At the meeting we will try to come up with a general musical concept, and a preliminary songlist. We will also tackle the small problem of a venue and work out a schedule for further meetings.
Make those calls now and keep me informed of any developments.
See you later,
Mike

Here we go again. The last Tuesday in June. Why do we do it? How do we do it. Year after year we drag ourselves to the Bag for 6 hours of pure simple screaming and dancing fun. Then we spend the next 364 days thinking about what to do next year, and trying, unsuccessfully, to explain this…this…thing to people who have never been here and then trying to convince them to come. (“You’ve just gotta see this thing, I’m tellin’ ya!”) As you well know, we expect the audience to sing, dance, yell, scream and sweat right along with the band, after all, you are a bigger part of the show than the band.. Every one of the 180 people involved with this show is a friend of mine, and I am proud to know every one of them. So, have a ball tonight, let your hair down, go nuts, go absolutely nuts, for one night just have as much fun as you can and then settle down and wait for next year. The last Tuesday in June. Just 364 days away. Hmmm!
PAPER BAG
WHAT A DRAG

Congratulations to Adam Schwab and Christine Privitera, who met at the Paper Bag in 1990 and are now engaged to be married. Is this a great show or what? Roast Beef Joe gets special recognition for going to the cash machine in order to pay for his Bag tickets on time. Special thanks go to Dave Gruebel’s Mom at the Paper Bag factory, Wolf’s Sporting Goods, Supreme Trophy, Lightcraft, S-K Sound, Rainbow Video, and to my lovely wife Susan & Emma Jeanne (the Little Bean) who put up with my late nights and a million other disruptions of their lives so that the show can go on. Finally, thanks to you, the audience, you guys make this the special event that it is. Now, everybody “Bop ‘till you drop”.

Guido Graduates!

1993 SECTION LEADERS
Many people wonder how this crazy, complicated show, with all its myriad details, ever comes together at all. Most of the credit goes to the Section Leaders who work many hours so that we can all enjoy the Bag. Thank them when you see them go by.
