Hey gang,

All is well with us, and we hope that you guys are doing great. As some of you have learned, we are involved in a fan donation campaign set up by Feed the Muse. If you have not heard, you can find our campaign widget somewhere on this page. This week we are setting a goal of $500, and we want to be able to continue to receive that amount weekly. So, as a token of our gratitude, if you give a donation within the next three weeks, you will be invited to appear in one of our videos that we will be filming over the next couple of months. We are really excited to record our next album, and we really hope you guys take an active role in its creation.

To donate visit http://www.feedthemuse.net/pawnshoproses

Thanks again,

Please read and answer the questions truthfully below to rate your intelligence:

Pawnshop Roses has been playing completely free shows in the Philly area every Thursday this month at The Blinkin' Lincoln and will be performing tonight, once again, with no cover charge, for the final time.

Many have come and enjoyed great music, not only by PSR, but stellar out-of-town groups hand picked by the band. Pawnshop has included many brand new tunes in their sets. In addition, the cheap drinks and friendly bartender, Jake, have kept the crowd merry and hydrated.

Answer the following questions and tally up your score:

Have you attended any of the past free Thursday night shows this month? (no= 0 yes=50)

Will you be attending tonight's FREE performance? (no=0 yes=50)

Add up your score so far…

Do you live within 30 miles of the Blinkin' Lincoln?
If your answer is no and your score so far is 0-49, add 30 points
If your answer is no and your score so far is 50-100, add 50 points
If your answer is yes and your score so far is 0-49, add 0 points
If your answer is yes and your score so far is 50-100, add 25 points

See how you rate…
Score:
125-150: You're a genius, know a good bargain when you see one, like to turn off the TV, get out, and be social.

75-124: You're very smart and have many of the characteristics of a genius, but occasionally you let good things pass you by and sometimes take things for granted. You should maybe consider a career change or taking up a hobby like alcoholism

30-74: You need help but there is hope for you. You realize good things are out there but you usually let them pass by or feel the extra effort to get out isn't worth it. You probably find the TV evening news entertaining.

0-29: You're dumb as an ox, a stupid moron. You make very poor choices and take life for granted. Stress at the job is probably your excitement for the day.

How did you do? Congrats if you scored highly! If not, you can still redeem yourself by getting out to the show tonight.
