[Robotgroup] [Fwd: Technical Rider]

[Paul Atkinson]

Hi Glenn,

I believe that the program/signage for RoboSpinArt at First Night claims that the RoboSpinArt machine was made by Spansion. It should state that it is sponsored by Spansion and made by the Robotgroup. Some confusion (on the part of First Night) may have occurred when Vern asked if Spansion could provide some flash cards to go inside the RoboSpinArt machine.

Also First Night had the Robotgroup and all artists sign a contract accepting a technical rider PRIOR to that rider being available, which is awkward at best.

Paul

I am a bit confused by the current situation and have been trying
to make sense of the all the messages after a long day at work.

If contracts and donations related issues are becoming a challenge,
lets try to clear them up as quickly as we can.

Let me know what I can do to help.
