[Drama-Committee] Meeting and other stuff
by Stephen Grimes 26 May '06

26 May '06

Hey guys, Since I won't make the meeting on Monday, but I think its a vital meeting, I want to make my points very clear. (I'm reading the minutes as I do this, so I'll do my best to be brief) But still... get a cuppa coffee and read through all of it! - Can we get the counter up on the website? We may as well just start somewhere/ sometime, so why not just whack it up now and people start using it as their homepage so the counter will tot-up quickly! Also, I've noticed that if you open the Committee page with Mozilla Firefox, the page looks really messy, but its fine with Internet Explorer?! Any solutions to this? - Have me and Eoin been made the only two who can authorize the committee-mailing list from outside people? Cus I've stopped a few irrelevant ones already and i think its better if its left to me and Eoin, or otherwise everyones account will be spammed! Whereas I'll go to the relevant ones and send them on. - What happened with the Tech grant app? Who's helping Alan on Monday (I can't, away...) - Speaking of apologies, would people ensure they send their apologies to John, and don't make life difficult with the whole "I'm not apologising for anything! la la la la..." The idea behind apologies is just for us to know that you still give a crap and can't make it to a meeting for a legitimate reason. Therefore, I apologise that i can't make this meeting on Monday. I'll be away in England, as will Dave, so there's his apology too. - While were on apologies, look... peoples attitude with the Music soc thing was a tad extreme. Don't loose the rag over every small thing or this society won't make it till next SEPTEMBER, never mind next year!!! Look, Bob said we'd give them money, he didn't consult, he made a mistake, he admits that and I don't see a problem. We promised €40 and we should deliver €40. In future I think everyone should take on board that it is the treasurer's decision and his alone to decide if we can give money. I don't think we should hold anything against Bob or music soc, and in future we'll just take more precaution in these decisions. - On the same topic, but worth a point alone. Everyone keep their smart-ass comments to themselves. You wanna e-mail each other with smart-ass comments, that's cool, but refrain from using the committee list. I think everyone should count to a hundred before replying to any e-mail, because usually its after they read it they realize how childish they were. So lets take this thing with music soc as a bump in the road, but lets not make a big deal outta something so minor... - Fundraising, fundraising, fundraising, fundraising... these words will need to be very familiar over the summer months and we need to get cracking NOW! Susan has arranged a bag pack in Gorey for the 8th and 9th of September, granted its far away (both time and distance) BUT its money in the bag... literally... So we need to ensure we have a crew and costumes for that date. (Its a weeks before freshers week) And personally I think that EVERY committee member (both old and new) should do there best to be there, cus we're all in the same boat and we all want Drama to be brilliant next year! - Speaking of fundraising... (see attachment) ... what ideas are in mind? Eh? We had some great ones last meeting... the drag event night could work well, as would a carol singing fest in July, but who's gonna organize these? - Next years musical (see 3 attachments)... I got a list, (up-to-date apparently) of musicals available and whatnot... Unfortunately the ones we were looking at are unavailable, gotta wade through this crap yourselves... but on the important note... we need to decide producers. Who? After I send the announce drama I got ONE reply... from Catherine (Villager 3)... to offer her services in fundraising, no mention of producing from anyone else... So can we make a decision on this? Cus we need the Helix booked asap. My nominations are Alan, Susan and Liana- because they're already on the case and I can't think of a reason why we shouldn't let them crack at it... but that's just my two cents. As for the director- I still think the possibility of a student director should be discussed. - I was speaking with Paul Kelly and he's very, very enthusiastic about directing 'The Field.' What do people think? I personally think he's up for the job and it could be an excellent show and, well... he's the only one that got on to me about anything!!! What does everyone think? - I'm all in favour of Nightmare Before Xmas- the video footage looked excellent. Neh... I can't think of anything else at the moment! Feel free to reply to me, not the committee list (unless its relevant to the full committee), that way we can reduce the amount of spamming going on! We're gonna have a great year and I can't wait to get cracking on it!!! Steve p.s.

by Eoin O' Callaghan 26 May '06

26 May '06

Right, Were we ever informed of this 40 euro before now? Can Bob clarify that we said we'd through Music Soc money toward an event organized by them? Am I missing something or is there something wrong with that? If I remember correctly, DRAMA did Music Soc a favour by turning up with ZERO rehearsal time on stage with said piano player (anyone remember that we were kicked off the stage as doors were about to open?). Maybe I'm looking into this too deeply but I'm very annoyed by this...Can we confirm that we offered Music Soc money before I respond to my Music Soc classmate's very horrible e-mail...I agree with Grimes Snr on this one... Also, well done on the Sponsorship stuff Suz. Will have a detailed look through it later on. As far as I know, Redz gave us a little bit for the musical and either Laura or Conor will know the name of the contact as they had a sit-down meeting with them. In the DRAMA post-box, there's another letter from Weinberger looking for ticket revenue information...We need to get this sorted asap. Can we get Shane to take a look into this? I know that Joey is ruled out until Saturday. Alan, you were looking for me earlier? And John, can you get in touch with me asap? Best of luck to you all with exams left... [eoc]
