Volunteer
So you want to help with Contempt?
First, be sure to read our mission. Contempt is brought
to life by an informally-organized committee of volunteers. You can be part
of our group simply by attending occasional meetings and contributing your talents.
The most important things that Contempt needs people to do are:
Promote / Help Run the Night / Guest
DJ
We can *always* use more help in this area. Get passes and give them out at clubs, stores and to friends. Provide announcements of our events to any appropriate media outlets: radio shows, 'zines, internet newsgroups, websites and e-mail lists. Passes are generally available for pick-up at the meetings.
Subscribe to the discussion list (see below) and let us know where you're going to be promoting (clubs, stores, parties, shows, etc.) so we know what's been covered. Mark your passes and if 5 of them are returned at the door, you get comped for the next event.
You can also help promote Contempt by linking your website to us. Let us know that you are doing so, and we will add a link to your website as well. To link to us, feel free to link directly to our website address: www.contemptny.org, or use this lump of HTML on your site:
<table border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"><tr height="115"> <td bgcolor="white" align="center" valign="top" width="105"><a href="http://www.contemptny.org/" target="_blank" border="none"><img src="http://www.contemptny.org/images/contempt-c.gif" width="105" height="105" border="0"><font style= "font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:black;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold" >contempt</font></a></td></tr></table>
...which will look like this:
contempt

Work the door, decorate, set-up, clean-up, production...and become a member
of the Contempt committee. The only prerequisite to becoming a member is that
you attend a committee meeting. The discussion list is the source for meeting
announcements, as we don't have meetings every week. If you would like to join
the committee, introduce yourself in a brief e-mail to our e-list moderator
for more details:

There are a couple of things to consider. First, Contempt is brought to life every month by an all-volunteer crew. Yes, this includes our DJs. Also, when selecting our guest DJs, we give preference to those who regularly attend Contempt.
