No loopholes. Pretty much straight forward. It is about a 11-12 pound pizza. Its topped with pepperoni, sausage, ham, and bacon (really tasty). You have to order it 24 hours in advance with a $25 deposit. If two people finish it in one hour, they get the deposit back and $100. If you don't finish it...

Great post! The other tips I can think of: If you have never been to the bar, make a trip there prior to the day of your first show. Make sure you know how to get there and how the place is set up. If you are playing within a 20 mile radius of your hometown, bar owners like to get to know you as a l...

Main point of my posting was to express concern that the unemployment compensation process takes over 8 months. During that time, it affects not only the employer who is appealing the claim, but also those employees who were granted money and will need to pay it back once the appeal is granted. Can ...
