Sasa, it is very pretty! BTW I finally have a positive confirmation that Anoop indeed got a wrist band from our 2nd batch (with the lighter color) which was given to him by our own southern blonde pimp HOLLY!!! She gave it to him at the Charlotte barricade as a part of her huge "gift suite." ETA: Holly hid the wristband in Lil' Noopy D's hoodie pocket, and gave Lil' Noopy D to him with a letter that says "there is a little surprise in his hoodie pocket." I think it's freakin cute that he went through the letter, dug into the little pocket, found the wband, and wore it the next day. Here is the little noopy D who did his duty as a delivery pixie. twitpic.com/agmnvHolly you really ROCK! *hugs* Great Job!!! =)

I am so proud to be a part of this.
Like I said on twitter, i know I'm a bitch but helping keep Eve's memory alive makes me feel just a little bit nicer.

Hey Y'all I think the time has come to let Anoop know how we're doing with the CarolinaBlueAnoopWBand campaign to raise funds for the Eve Carson Memorial Scholarship Fund at UNC.
This is a good beginning, but remember.... it's about reaching higher than we thought we could go, and I say we can go a WHOLE LOT higher!!!
Tonight during intermission of the tour show, I will Tweet to Anoop a message and tell him what we've been able to do in a short time. I want you all to let him know you're on the ball, organized and strategic ..... and that we won't stop this campaign until everyone has Carolina Blue on their wrists like he does..... and like we do.... for a reason and a wonderful cause.
Let's do this the "Carolina Way" We've raised $800 so far.

$800.00 is great ! I bought 2 and was really happy to be able to wear them to the NC shows. It's cool wearing the same thing that's on his wrist and to help the Eve Carson fund too. . Glad to be a small part of this...hope to get more involved here. Faye

$800.00!! Wow, that is fantastic - I am so proud to be a part of this great endeavour. I will be selling a few WBs this Fri in Hamilton, ON (and hopefully passing some on to Anoop, our guy that loses everything!)
Do you have many WBs left, Jean & Yoko?

We noticed at Newark show#2 Anoop was missing ALL his wristbands..... a plan was hatched for a delivery pixie to give him replacement CarolinaBlueAnoopWBands ASAP. We entrusted ATT Trooper Anjana to carry out this assignment today at the Hamilton, Ontario show. We were disappointed her shipment of WBs did not arrive in time, and decided that if she got the opportunity, she would give Anoop her own WB. We sent Anoop messages that she was there and pics of her sign to him, so he could identify his delivery pixie easily.
This plan worked beautifully. When Anoop came outside before the show, he told her his other wristbands were not exactly lost, but misplaced in wardrobe, she gave him her WB, and she got a pic with him, also signed her Clef CD..... later during Anoop's set, Anjana Tweeted that he was wearing her WB on stage! Mission accomplished...... good work by all concerned. We'll be giving him several backup WBs at the Boston and/or Philly shows, just in case more are lost among the wardrobe......
Now that Anoop is once again wearing his AnoopWBand, all we need to do is get one on every Anoop fan everywhere!!

That's great Jean! Good work! I will look for it there! Hopefully with that exposure we can double the effort before October 22! Hi C. -- This is such an exciting time! I made some new friends at UNC offices, and Anoop just last night, after the Kansas City show, Tweeted to us -- "Just got rly excited ab moving to LA to strt the hustle. Being in KC reminded me of how much life has changed in the last yr. Here's to more" Since he's now cleared the place where he started, he's more excited to go forward!! So, lots of things going to the next level.... keep me posted if you get any ideas we can use to promote the WBs for Eve Scholarship! I still hope to see you and family Oct.22 Jean [/font]

My WBands story when me & fellow troopers flew to Milwaukee, August 28th..
So, we met Anoop at the barricades mid-afternoon but i didnt notice that he is missing a WBand, he was wearing long sleeves so i probably didnt notice.. Me, Alice, Arlene, & Audra, at that time, did not know if we got passes to go backstage. If y'all dont know/remember, Alice (aznchica2002) won BS passes from michael through Twitter but never heard again from him. So what we did when Michael went out to Meet&Greet in Milwaukee, Arlene&Alice had a nice private TALK with him, reminding him that Alice won and if he could PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give us FOUR.. he said he will try and just go to the WILL CALL window by 6pm..
6pm came & me, alice & arlene went to Will Call. me & arlene stayed back & let alice grab the passes.. Me & arlene were holding on to each other, wishing for the best but if alice got 1 or 2 passes, we would be happy for her.. Alice came back, opened the envelope & slowly counted the passes, she said FOUR!! OMG!! Me & Arlene screamed in joy! lol.. There were already ALOT of people goin inside Bradley center & a Twitter person got our Twitter accounts & told me that we scared the hell out of the people in line.. haha. we're sorry bout that.. so, i told Yoko about the passes & she tells me about Anoop supposedly missing his WBand again. i didnt know about that. She asked me if i could give him my WBand when we go backstage.
Luckily, I did not have to give Anoop MY Wbands because i had TWO EXTRA WBANDS with me that time.. I bought FIVE WBands from Jean before the MKE show, one was for me, 2 were for my friends & the two extra i was planning to sell. I couldnt seem to find HARDCORE anoop fans that deserve the WBands during the Meet & Greet. The other Anoop fans there already had WBands with them. So when i found out Anoop needed one, i was absolutely happy that i didnt sell or give away my extra WBands!
( i know we shouldve recorded everything but it was really hard to concentrate knowing we have Anoop for ourselves. lol) so, Backstage, Anoop was the first one we saw when we entered. a group was infront of us so we let them go first, then when it came to our time, We approached Anoop and we said Hi and asked how he was. I told him right away that YOKO told me that he was missing a WBand.. He told me that, he was currently ONLY wearing his Tarheels Wband that has the same color.. He did NOT address the "MISSING" part. i think he didnt want us to think that he was careless or lost it just anywhere, so i just told him that i had an extra WBand for him & he took it & wore it right away.. That was it! we then proceeded to taking more pics, a lil bit more chat, more hugs, more group pics. lol. & we said our goodbyes!
That was my WBand story in Milwaukee! So i guess from now on, carrying an extra WBand with y'all isnt too bad! We'll never know what could happen!! =D
Oh, and i said i had TWO extra.. well, y'all know we were also there to support Michael. We came there as "michanoopers", so Alice thought that we should give Michael the other one too!! =)

WBand owners:
Please send me your name, city, and state/country so I can include you in the contributor book that will be put together and given to Anoop on October 22 at the State Fair. Please do so by Wednesday, October 7. You can tweet me @yoko71, email me yf70461@yahoo.com, or dm me here at the Street Team.
Also, if you have a picture of yourself wearing a wristband, you can send me your picture. Deadline is also October 7. I am making a collage of wband pictures. I will not identify each person on the picture.
This book and collage is for Anoop's eyes only. I will share with you what the book look like as well as the pictures, but with all the names and personal ID blurred.
