December 24th at Midnight PST will be the last time we will be taking orders for the Orange Band project (http://www.absolutepunk.net/andrew). So if you still want one, get those orders in before the end of the year! Thank you to everyone who has participated so far in making this an incredibly successful endeavor. :andrew:

']I have yet to take mine off.
I take it off to shower, usually, but then I leave it on the hook and come back like 10 minutes later hoping no one would take it.

I was suprised that someone else on my small campus had one, it made me happy to see with a college of 2500 that at least 2 of us could like good music and support it.

This is/was such a great project ... thanks Jason, the "mail lady", and whoever else helped out with it ... I'm sure Andrew appreciates it as much as we appreciate his music ...

I am the mail lady!

I don't have a total yet. I have been procrastinating with the paperwork until the entire project is finished. I will tally it up at the end.

That depends on what size you order. I am currently out of mediums and waiting for a shipment to arrive before I can mail any of them. I don't expect them to arrive until next week. I do have some large and some child sizes on hand which can be shipped out immediately. The child size has not been on the order form because we ran into problems with it being smaller than people assumed. However, if you are sure that you want a child size wristband, you can email me and we can coordinate people getting them. linda@absolutepunk.net

i just ordered mine since I trully support Andrew and his bands and love what you did Tate

Linda Ferreira

I will email everybody who is affected by the backorder of wristbands. However, there are some people that I am not able to email, so I will post their names. The following people have sent in orders for mediums and will not be getting them until the next shipment arrives next week: C. Kent, W. Kunkel, B. Garfoot, V. Sena, R. Visconti and K. Starr. I am sorry about the delay.

I've wore mine to school since day 1 (don't wear it much else, only to keep it from getting ruined) and I was amazed at how many of these were sold. I was in the first shipment, and I never expected months later to have at least 3,000 other ones out there. You guys did a great job. Major props AP

If I was gonna order one through the mail would it get there in time to beat the deadline?

The only time I took mine off since receiving it months ago was for a football game cause orange is our rivals colors. So I just moved it to my keys until afterwards. Other than that, I only take it off when I take a shower and I feel lost when I'm not wearing it.
I haven't seen too many people wearing it :( But when I was at Nintendo Fusion, I saw a few.

Such a great idea for such a good cause.

It would be great if anybody who sends an order in the mail between now and December 24th would also email me (linda@absolutepunk.net) and let me know their name and the quantity and size(s) that they are ordering. That way, I can know the total number that I will need to order if I have to place another order for bands. I plan to place that order on December 26th.

What are the measurements for large and mediums again?

I can't believe I haven't ordered one yet...

Mediums are 7 3/8"
Larges are 8 3/8"

I also have 15 of the child size which are 5 7/8" (you need to email me prior to ordering one of these since they are limited and are not on the order form).

the only time i have taken mine off is for field hockey, and that was against my own free will.

great cause, great guy:bigsmile:
