Just taking some time to think about what I want to do.Photo: Courtesy of Todd P.
Indie concert promoter Todd Patrick, known in young Brooklyn-ish circles as Todd P., is looking for interns to help run his burgeoning empire. Because free labor is, like, the DIY way, you know? (That’s Do-It-Yourself to you old heads.) The Toddmeister’s looking for “peeps” who “love independent music and DIY ethics” have copyediting experience (snarf) and who also happen to “own a laptop” and “aren’t working another serious job.” In other words, trust-fund hipsters or liberal-arts majors who don’t have to put in hours at the library in order to pay for their books (Mr. P will sign off on college credit!). Fortunately for Todd P, it’s September, and Lord knows there are plenty of those around.
His e-mail is after the jump.

also - SHOWPAPER is looking for new interns / volunteers too!
If you’re interested, they’re looking for the same time commitments I am,

grant writing experience. They’re also looking for distro help in NJ, CT,
LI, & upstate the 5 boroughs - particularly distro peeps w/ access to a
vehicle.
Showpaper is also looking for folks who can help to get papers into the
schools in the area - if you can help we’d love to hear about it.
