Funk-Em Fridays....PLEASE READ IF YOUR GAS IS OUTRAGEOUS!
(This is how to do it!)
Body: MaddHatters wants you to join a "don't buy gas day" coalition each and every Friday for the rest of the year from (Exxon and Mobil). We're calling it "Funk-em Fridays". Ask everyone you know today to refuse buying gas from (Exxon and Mobil). Though oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a gallon of gas is CHEAP?! at $3.00 right now..they are raising it to over $4.00 this summer, which really sucks for our fans following us on the road. What everyone often forgets is that, WE as BUYERS control the marketplace..... not sellers. Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying gas, but we can have an impact on gas prices. We're asking everyone to peacefully unite together and actively encourage a price war. By collectively agreeing not to purchase gas on just 1 day each week from Exxon and Mobil ... (Funk-em Fridays), we will literally tear an enormous HOLE in their pocket books. If they are not selling any gas, they will have to reduce their prices and if they try to spike their prices on Saturday, go to any other gas station except Exxon and Mobil. They will then have to reduce their prices and the other companies will follow suit.
In order for this to work, we need everyone to do this each and every Friday for the rest of the year (Funk-em Fridays). We are sending this message to thousands of close friends and fans nationwide. If you can repost this message on your bulletin and pass it on, by the time this message reaches the sixth group of people, we will be able to show the greedy gas company's who's THEIR boss. The only way this will work is if we all work together peacefully... can you dig it?
one love,
the band
