Hey everybody! Thanks to all our club members for all your hard work in getting to this point. The SOMA Local Music Compilation CD is now available. We’ll be selling these along with our t-shirts at all of our events, especially at our Open Mic Night this Tuesday which is our last of the year. CD’s are $5, t-shirts are $10, and you can get both of them for $13. And they’re both incredible. Check out the roster for the Compilation CD. Its tops:

The Reagan Eighties
Jeff Kornberg
the Fort Worth Dialect
Danny and the Bygones
The Disconnect
Nodd Morris
Maryjo Mattea
North
Epileptic Peat
Jimi Jive
The Slant
Rock A Booty
Scream Team
Kick Old Man
This Place is Haunted
Pol sOL
The Only Exception
Charles Ramsey

Stop by and support SOMA if you can. Outside of our larger events, we are entirely funded by the events we run. We are also a no membership dues club. Basically we only want to provide a service to you, the students. So here is your chance to help support the local arts. Oh and thanks to everyone who played and came to this last Saturday’s Songwriter Showcase, it was a lot of fun. Cya the Open Mic Night on Tuesday! (Its in the West Halls Commons from 9-11- signups are at 7:30).

Wow, its been a long time since I updated. So its probably a good time to look back on all the good things we’ve done this semester. I’m sure I’ll forget something haha:
SOMA’s been nominated for the Outstanding Organization of the Year Award from the University
SOMA received another year office space (for fall 07-srping 08)
We’ve had 3 awesome Open Mic Nights (they will be the first Tuesday of every month from now on!)
We had an Indie/Folk Concert down at Dragon Chaser’s
The SOMA/VASA Arts Crawl 2007 was a gigantic success. So crazy and fun that we’re planning on making it an annual event.
We should have t-shirts coming out in the next couple weeks. The top two designs will be sold.

We our still taking submissions for the SOMA Local Music Compilation.
So we’ve really been moving. Its been a great year, and largely due to the kick-butt new members we have this year. Wouldn’t be SOMA without ya. Hope to see all of you at a meeting sometime soon.
