UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATEGuys - THANK YOU AGAIN! We held on!!! Thanks to YOU!!! I hoped that ACIDIC's video could stay in the Top Ten, AND YOU HELPED MAKE THAT HAPPEN!!!!
We held at #5 despite the competition! WE SURVIVED!!!! So we're still in there pitching for another week, now that another battled begins. So if you have a moment and nothing else to do, maybe you'll help us hang on in THIS round, too? Same routine. If you can, that is WUNNNNNNNderful. If not - SOOOOOO grateful for the help you already gave us on this!

To revisit...
I try not to ask for too much around here, especially since others here have so much more important, more urgent, and more critical needs that need top priority attention. This is just a little request, and certainly no life-or-death type of thing.
But I figured, it couldn't hurt to ask (again).
My kid's band, ACIDIC, is in a music video battle on Loudwire.com - and their video, "Chicago," needs votes! You can only vote once an hour and - even with a bunch of visitors here at the house, all with their laptops, evidently this voting looks at only the server or whatever - so whenever I vote (or ONE other person here does), that kills any chance that everybody else here can vote that hour, in their own right.

If you have a moment, vote for ACIDIC's "Chicago" video. Since they made it to the Top Ten, that means their video is viewable right there on the Loudwire.com page with videos from a LOT bigger bands, and you don't even have to search for it. ACIDIC SURVIVED!!!! We're still at #5 and holding - at least for now.

Please forgive me for begging, because I know it certainly does NOT outrank the far-more-serious appeals for help that have been posted here on DU. But it's pretty easy and straightforward, and it doesn't cost anything, either. Plus - you might enjoy the video! It's PG-rated - no dirty words, and it can be played in anyone's presence.
THANK YOU! AGAIN. Just ... THANK YOU!
You guys ROCK!!!!

It seems to be just a random thing. I've voted a number of times by now. And I've noticed that too.

Shoot - I wish I spoke Twitter more fluently. I just get flummoxed by this stuff.
