News and Happenings from the Radish

Hey kids,

This is one of those emails that any infoshop has to send out from time to time. We are short on the rent this month. We need another 75$ to pay the rent. We aren't that far from our goals, but we still need a bit more to push us over. If everyone who receives this email gives/sends/drops in the can/paypals TWENTYFIVE CENTS to the Radish we can pay the rent. (A monthly donation from each of us of only 3.00 would keep the Radish running smoothly.)

Another thing that we are organizing right now is the Radish table at MSU's Culturefest. We still need a few more people to run a short shift on Tuesday, September 19th. We need volunteers from 11:00am until 4:30 pm, with the table being open from 12:00 until 4:00. We would like to have two people at any point, so that we can trade off, run to the bathroom, etc. If anyone is able to work, even for an hour somewhere in the middle, just email your availability and we will pencil you in.

Besides the Culturefest table there are several things going on in the space as of late. We have a concert in the space on September 9th, which is this Saturday. It will start at 1:00 pm, so it will be a nice afternoon show at the Radish, with no cigarette smoke and no spilled beer. The bands are In Ink Please and Snow Cuts Glass, two guy-girl duos from up north. We also have a film series going on at the Radish, if you are interested in the individual screenings visit http://www.my.calendars.net/pno You can also keep updated on Radish events through the Radish Blog, at http://radishinfoshop.blogspot.com

(As a side note I just saw the most awesome book ever. It is called “Sticker Nation: The Big Book of Subversive Stickers, V. I.” We have one copy in the shop, and are hoping to order more. It has 400 stickers, with messages like “Electronic Anarchist”, “Alter the State”, “Reverse the Decay”, and “Eat More Veggies.” They are all bike-sized, and together a beautiful representation of alternative print. I encourage you all to come by, or go to your favorite online bookstore, and check it out.)

Well kids, I think I have written enough for today.

Until the system changes,

Hey guys, this is frank the guy with the cube and a heavy accent.
I would like to meet with as many people I could. I'm looking for
individuals who like to get and who are involved at the radish.
I have some ideas so just please let me know when it would be the best to show up, so we could go through these steps, more heads more,opinions, more solutions.

see you soon
