The RPM Challenge
This is the challenge: record an album in 28 days, just because you can.

That’s 10 songs or 35 minutes of original material recorded during the month of February. Go ahead… put it to tape.

Don't wait for inspiration - taking action puts you in a position to get inspired. You'll stumble across ideas you would have never come up with otherwise, and maybe only because you were trying to meet a day’s quota of (song)writing. Show up and get something done, and invest in yourself and each other.

Anyone can come up with an excuse to say “no,” so don’t!

We had a lot of fun putting together this video about 2007's RPM! Thanks to everyone who sent in footage and photos, and everyone who participated in 2007!
 
Volunteer
If you want to get more involved in helping with RPM, we are looking for people with skills and interests in the following areas to join a loose-knit but devoted team of volunteers:
1. Promotion (generating and sending out press releases, developing promotional material, downloads, listening party materials)
2. Forum Moderators, Topic Moderators
3. Content Generation (podcasting, question/answer posts, feature articles, possible mailing list content generators)
4. Web Design/Development (emphasis on technical ability here -- we're a Joomla-driven site, if you have some experience with this we could use your help polishing up the edges and implementing new features)
5. Products (helping to source and design RPM tees, stickers, postcards, possible gifts for donators, etc.)
If you are interested in any of these areas, contact Dustin (Mosfet) here. When you contact Dustin, be specific about your interests and skills -- it's always nice to hear that people are "willing to do anything" but it's rarely true, nor does it help us figure out what you'll be good at!
 
Merchandise

Merchandise is available for sale via two paths.  Primarily because we have some old items still in inventory we need to sell. This year we have a nifty new store for all future items.  Your purchase of these items helps fund RPM activities plus it shows off to your friends/family/fans that you are an active participant in one of the coolest musical events of the year.
