In a very recent megaherz Newsletter. fans take heed:Street team IV: USA Release of I
Eligibility: USA and Canadian Fans
On February 24, 2004, "Wer bist du" will be released in the USA under the name of "I". Pre-orders for this CD are already appearing online with many familiar merchandisers. The maximum effect for success of this CD lies in its being available for purchase in stores with real-world retailers. To help make this happen, we need to let the retailers know that there is
interest in this CD.
We will be focusing on the big 4 in the USA: FYE, Tower Records, Sam Goody, and Virgin Megastores. In Canada, we are targeting HMV. We need you to visit these stores in your area and ask for the CD. Most clerks will be happy to look up in their database for CD availability. Simply say: "I am wondering if this store will have this CD on its release date. The name of the band is Megaherz and the CD is called 'I' and it is being released on February 24, 2004." For Canadians ? omit the reference to the specific release date and just say that it is "becoming
available at the end of February". It may also help if you have the band's name and the title of the CD written on a notecard or piece of paper which you can simply give to the clerk for reference due to the German spelling.
We need you to start visiting these stores as soon as possible. The first 2 weeks in February are probably the most critical time frame. We need your help!
Everyone who participates will receive a Megaherz sticker as a "thank you". In addition, on February 24th we will randomly select 3 names to receive a signed/autographed copy of this USA-released CD.
After you have made contact with one of the specified stores ? Let us know about it immediately!
Send the following information to betsy@megaherz.com:
* Your full name and mailing address
* The name of the store you visited
* The date you visited the store
* The store's location (street address, city, state/province)
* Any additional info you obtain from the store (if they expect to get it in, when, etc.)
For each store you visit ? you will receive credit for one entry into the drawing for the signed CDs. The more stores you visit ? the more entries you can qualify for.
In advance, thanks for your help! If you have any questions concerning this, either post your question in the "Street Team IV" thread located on the Street Team forum in the Megaherz.com forums or send an email directly to betsy@megaherz.com.
We sincerely apologize that this effort is so specific that it excludes the possibility of everyone being able to participate. If you do not live in the USA or Canada or if you do not live near one of the specified merchandisers ? sorry. Hopefully there will be a chance for those
excluded to participate in a future Street Team for Megaherz!
