I. moosebutter shirts are now available.

No, no, no, put down your pitchforks and incendiary weapons, they're not those shirts. They're the moosebutter stage shirts.

We have heard your constant cries of pleading, "Grant us the moosebutter shirts or we shall storm Martha Stewart's jail cell and stomp upon her cupcakes!", and now the same shirts worn by moosebutter in their wacky moosebutter-y comedy music show can be yours to own, to wear, to hug, to cuddle. These shirts make many bold statements: "I know who moosebutter is." "I'm not afraid to admit that I wish I could communicate with artichokes." And of course, "This moose is in a red triangle."

Available at moosebutter shows beginning Saturday, June 26th, and for order from the moosebutter web site soon (check the store to see if they are there). Cost: $12. Sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL (limited #). Colors: Black, or White. Flavor: Lima Bean.

III.
Volunteers!
moosebutter needs volunteers to help at the moosebutter merchandise and information table for shows this summer! If you can answer simple questions such as, "Who are these guys?," "Can I give you money for their CD?," and/or "Did that short dude REALLY just do / say what I thought he did?" then you are perfect!

Each volunteer will be given one free moosebutter T-shirt, admission to a moosebutter show, and the adulation of adoring moosebutter fans. Volunteers will be expected to be available from 2 hours before the start of a show to one hour after the show, will attend a mercifully short orientation and training workshop, and must be trustworthy, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, ....

Contact tim@moosebutter.com if you are interested. Please indicate your age, availability (day, evening, weekend, holiday), area you live, areas you would be willing to travel to assist, and favorite 70's pant fabric. Upcoming dates when volunteers are needed: June 26, eve, American Fork, UT; July 2, eve, Provo, UT; July 3, afternoon, Murray, UT.

5ive.
Special moosebutter presentation: The Orem City Library, for the "This is Your Library" segment of their "What Have We Here?" series, has invited Tim to give a special lecture about moosebutter, and how the library has and continues to inspire the band.
Tim will share experiences from life with the band; talk a great deal about forming the band, musical and comedic influences, and the pressures of running a performing group; talk about the overall vision of the group; share upcoming song, album, and project insights; and field questions from the audience. Tim will also mingle with people and field personal questions after the presentation. Not too personal, mind you.
