Hey everybody,

Come join us on January 31st for the official launch of the 30 Week Challenge CD, and an evening of live music to raise funds for for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. And what a great event we have planned! Get your tickets now for the Saturday, January 31st event.It will all go down at the Port Kells Centennial Hall at 18918 88th Avenue in Surrey, starting at 7:00.

I’ve pulled together an all-star band made of my most musical buddies, and will be joined by special musical guests, Mike Carew and ??????. You’ll be able to join the fight against Breast Cancer by picking up a CD, t-shirt, and and yes, having a few drinks from the bar as well. What a great way to beat those January Blues!

Click the Buy Now button to reserve your tickets now for an event that we expect to sell out. If you’re from out of town, and will not be able to attend, purchasing tickets will be your way of donating to a fabulous cause. Thanks for your support!

Cheers, Eliot (and the 30 Weeks Orchestra).

Many thanks to Amanda Biden for taking it upon herself to write up a fabulous article about The Challenge, and getting into four of the local papers so far: The Langley Advance, Langley Times, Aldergrove Star and Surrey Leader.  Hopefully the interest this stirs up is just the beginning of my evil plan for mind-control over every man, woman and child in the world! Or as a consolation prize, more votes, and more musicians willing to chip in on the fundraising effort.

 Thanks again, Amanda!

Hi, I’m Eliot. What’s up? Get ready on January 1st to have some fun watching me squirm and struggle to come up with one new song a week, without fail. No excuses, no procrastinating, and… no Quality Control! However, this is more than a forced songwriting challenge… I’m counting on YOU to participate!

You are invited to vote, share your ideas, and even contribute musically to the final product. Check out The Rules for a breakdown on how it all works.

The whole goal of the 30 Week Challenge is to see if it’s possible to write catchy, cohesive, well-crafted songs by committee. Will we end up with a jumbled mess of too-many-ideas-fighting-for-attention? Or will we come up with something memorable, fun, and well… AWESOME!? Please check back every Monday for the new song. I NEED your help. And tell your friends!!
