I'm sure that's what they're doing while they sift through the entries! It is the best way to make an important decision, don't you know! Just as long as your not seeing double and accidentally bubble in a candidate whose name starts with "M"...
Do you think they will let people know if they win OR lose, or just if they win?
I think it said just if they win
Greetings
Thank you very much for sending in an entry to our Vote For Change Election Eve Party contest. We have chosen your entry as a winner! Please keep checking your postal mail for a special package from Ten Club/Six Stair this week.
If you feel like inviting the Pearl Jam community to your event on November 3rd, we are creating a place to post the information in the Pearl Jam Message Pit. Please login and let the fans know where they can potentially catch the film in their own hometown.
We would love to share photos of your event with the rest of the Pearl Jam community. Please email us some photos at webmaster@tenclub.net and we will post them on pearljam.com. We’re looking forward to hearing from you!
Here is a Vote For Change? 2004 film synopsis by directors Rick Charnoski and Coan Nichols:
In April of 2004 we were deep in the San Bernadino, CA skating a few of the dozens of pools left empty by the fires that swept through the area a few months earlier. Jeff Ament, bass player for Pearl Jam, had come along to take advantage of this opportunity. Jeff has been a fan of our skate films (Fruit of the Vine, Northwest, Tent City, etc.) for a few years and asked if we would be interested in doing something with Pearl Jam. He mentioned that they were planning a "Vote For Change" tour right before the election and maybe we could come along and make a film.
We worked it out and ended up in Seattle in the beginning of October 2004 in time to shoot some rehearsals and meet the other band members. We didn't really have much of a plan and we hadn't shot much live music before, but we figured we'd just wing it and see what we got. We brought a few Super 8 movie cameras, a video camera and loads of film and just started shooting.
We flew from Seattle to New York, then followed the tour in a van to Reading PA, Toledo OH, Grand Rapids MI, St Louis MO, Asheville NC and ended up in Kissimee FL. Along the way we met with and spoke to hundreds of fans and just ordinary people about voting, democracy and politics in general. We cut the interviews into the live performances from each city, along with a few exclusive interviews with each band member. It is the first rock and roll tour film that WE know of shot entirely in super 8mm film with an amazing sound track recorded live and mixed by Brett Eliason.
We got home and cut the film, but never showed it to anyone. The enthusiasm for the project dwindled due to the outcome of the election. Ironically, we feel like Bush's reelection may have made the film even more important/ valid and we think now is a great time to dig it out and remind people why it is so important to vote. We love this film, it's like nothing we have ever done before and we are stoked to finally have the chance to show it.

Things change. They wont change unless you make them. The best way to change something you don't like, is to change yourself. So if you feel like you have a piece of duct tape on your mouth and you can't escape, take it off, speak up, speak your mind, shout it out, let 'em hear ya! -EV
Has anyone else noticed that it seems like they are letting people know they won one by one?
I don't think so, I think people are just slow to post. They said that all the winners would be notified on Wednesday, and I'm pretty sure they were. Either the winners are slow to post or they're just not checking their email. Personally, I'm pretty surprised that I didn't win. I thought I had a great venue--- an auditorium that seats like 700 with a giant screen and projector dvd. And I'm in Allentown, which is the 3rd largest city in PA, it's halfway between NYC and Philly, plus we've got a ton of commuters that live here cause it's so much cheaper than in either of those cities. I had about 30 people plus all their friends already committed to coming before I even sent my entry, and yet I lost. Oh well, easy come easy go. I'm just happy that a lot of other people around the country are gonna enjoy it

That sounds like a great venue! I am surprised you didn't win too. I wonder how many entries they had... I will cross my fingers for you that there was a glitch and you just haven't gotten the email yet...
I put in a request for Covington, KY. I'm dying to find out where the screenings are going to be!!
I'm setting up a screening in Charleston, WV. I don't know how far that is from Covington but I will let you know when it is finalized.
I got a call from my mom today saying that I got a package from SixStair. It had a letter of congratulation, the DVD, a poster, and a t-shirt. I have to pick it up but I am SUPER HYPED.
On a related note, I never got an e-mail back saying that I had won the contest.

Those are super cool, thanks for posting Lindsay (although I'm ultra-jealous!)
My shirt is green.
And if no one noticed, there were 60 winners instead of 50.
Where did you see 60?
