We may have the answer...

to what, you might ask? Well... check out this one little tidbit swtchft_fn on the official message boards gave us...

got a message from this one band who wants their fans to vote for them in the top 20 countdown...and it said that you have to vote for at least two videos for the vote to count...

Ok! So lets put in a vote for one other band at least, for our wildcard to count! What do you think? I'll be putting in my votes for "Hey There Delilah" by Plain White T's or "The First Time" by Lifehouse. PLEASE PLEASE spread this important message to all the other Switchfoot fans you know who have been voting for "Awakening."

In the words of Mr. Gibbs in Pirates of the Caribbean, "I think I see a change in the wind..." Peace out friends! =p

And a fan posted an informational video up on Youtube about 100 4 SF. I like the rotating colors.



Share it if you'd like!

Switchfoot Sighting; And a word of caution...?

Check out this tight Awakening/Switchfoot sighting at a boba tea house I was just at:



It kinda looks like the clock at Buster's house, doesn't it? Maybe...?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, a word of caution. The way music video stations work, wildcards or fill-ins don't exactly have an advantage in the voting process. If we don’t make it onto the countdown this week, don’t be discouraged. Our flooding will definitely turn heads at VH1 brass. The focus is to get this onto Vh1, the channel, first. And the only way we can do that right now is to flood the wildcard option until they add “Awakening” to their database. Once that happens, the video will start getting rotation on the channel, then it will be added to the countdown voting list. And once that happens, we can definitely turn “Awakening” into a hit!

So let us trudge on brothers and sisters... haha. It'll be great once we can finally sit back and enjoy success for "Awakening" dontcha all agree?

So who's with me? Who agrees to not get discouraged??? haha

Tips on How to Survive 100 4 SF...

...or at least to make it easier...? haha. Becca, one of our fellow footsoldiers, sent in some tips she came up with to keep the voting spirit at a high! Here's what she had to say:

1. Make VH1 your homepage. Think about voting 5-10 times before going to the next site you were going to visit (like myspace, email, etc.)

2. Set a couple times a day to sit down and do x number of votes. For instance, you could say that you'll get on at 2PM to vote 30 times, 5PM to vote another 30 times, then at 7PM and 9PM you could vote 30 more times. Spreading it out will make the whole experience easier.

3. Listen to switchfoot while voting. In my opinion, they're quite
motivating. :)

4. Keep a count of votes that you've submitted. Do you know that little time after you click "submit" where it says "processing vote"? that's the
perfect few seconds to put a little dot on a piece of paper to show that you
submitted a vote. Not only does it keep track of how many votes you've submitted, but it'll make you feel good to look back at it at the end of the day and see how much you've committed to switchfoot.


those are just a few things. If you feel like posting them feel free
and
simplify them. I kinda went on and on.

Great tips Becca! Thanks!

How many of you have been keeping track of how many times you've voted? I know I'm kinda behind everyone now (I only voted 101 times on Vh1 yesterday, and 8 times on FUSE)... -__-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Today is the last day of Awakening Month... lets make it good! (how many of you think extending it to the end of this week sounds like a good idea??)

Let the FLOODING begin!!

Hey friends! This is Job! And, contrary to popular belief, I am still alive and well (albeit a little sleepy and weary from my past week). I'm amped to get this 100 4 SF campaign started. I think Chris deserves a hand for the awesome work he did over the past week. Anyone agree???

Well, today marks the official start of the 100 4 SF campaign. Lets support each other throughout the week. Comment here if you want to brag about how many votes you've logged so far, or whatever the heck you wanna say. I'll be around, voting as the day goes along. Lets get Switchfoot onto VH1! (oh, and make sure you tell every other Switchfoot fan you know to help out and vote for the guys!)


MAKE SURE TO VOTE ON FUSE TOO! ^^
