      Apparently
      booze
      and
      the
     
     
      environment
      can
      work
      together
      for
      the
     
     
      greater
      good.
      This
      was
      Michael
     
     
      Willcock’s
      strategy
      when
      he
      and
      the
     
     
      UPEI
      Environmental
      Club
      devised
      a
     
     
      plan
      to
      enable
      club
      members
      to
      attend
     
     
      a
      sustainable
      campus
      conference
      in
     
     
      Vancouver
      at
      the
      erid
      of
      September.
     
     
      And
      the
      plan
      was
      a
      palpable
      success.
     
    

    
     
      “The
      concert
      was
      a
      total
     
     
      success.
      After
      the
      initial
      costs
      of
      putting
     
     
      on
      the
      concert,
      we
      raised
      about
      $700
     
     
      which
      was
      really
      good,
      considering
     
     
      everyone
      was
      telling
      us
      we
      wouldn’t
     
     
      make
      anything.”
     
    

    
     
      “Our
      promotional
      strategy
     
     
      was
      ‘come
      out
      and
      see
      some
      wicked
     
     
      bands
      and
      get
      hammered’.
      Essentially,
     
     
      we
      really
      wanted
      to
      touch
      home
      with
     
     
      the
      student
      body,
      and
      what
      better
      way
     
     
      to
      do
      that
      then
      to
      raffle
      off
      tickets
      for
      a
     
     
      (texas)
      mickey?”
     
    

    
     
      What
      better
      way,
      indeed?
     
    

    
     
      Concert
      goers
      turned
      out
      in
     
     
      drunken
      droves
      to
      see
      local
      bands
     
     
      Fugato,
      Officer
      Girl,
      the
      Robots,
      and
     
     
      the
      Dank.
      According
      to
      Willcock,
      the
     
     
      lineup
      was
      pretty
      easily
      attained.
      The
     
     
      bands
      even
      played
      for
      nothing;
      save
      for
     
     
      free
      beer
      in
      the
      green
      room.
     
    

    
     
      “T’m
      lucky
      enough
      to
      have
      a:
     
     
      roommate
      in
      Fugato,
      so
      they
      were
      easy
     
     
      to
      get.
      also
      know
      the
      guys
      from
      Officer
     
     
      Girl,
      and
      they
      were
      more
      than
      happy
     
     
      to
      help
      us
      out.

      Doiron,
      who
      is

      the
      Robots
      and

      is
      also
      in
      the
     
     
      Environmental
      Society,
      so
      it
      wasn’t
      a
     
     
      problem
      to
      get
      them
      to
      play
      as
      well.
      It
     
     
      really
      helps
      when
      you
      have
      those
      kinds
     
     
      of
      connections
      to
      work
      with.”
     
    
   
   
    
     
      In
      fact,
      the
      entire
      concert
      came
     
     
      together
      in
      three
      weeks;
      and
      attained
     
     
      optimal
      success.
     
    

    
     
      “We
      were
      very
      surprised
      at
      the
     
     
      results
      because
      we
      put
      the
      concert
     
     
      together
      very,
      very
      quickly.
      But
      there
     
     
      was
      overwhelming
      support
      for
      it—
      both
     
     
      through
      the
      Student
      Union
      and
      the
     
     
      student
      body.
      I
      was
      a
      little
      surprised
      at
     
     
      the
      results
      because
      I
      knew
      that
      since
     
     
      we
      are
      anew
      society
      on
      campus,
      not
     
     
      many
      people
      knew
      about
      us!
      But
      now
     
     
      a
      lot
      more
      people
      know
      about
      us,
      and
     
     
      we
      got
      about
      eight
      more
      people
      that
     
     
      night
      who
      joined
      the
      club!”
     
    

    
     
      “It

      all

      get
      everything

      It
      came

      weeks

      when
      the

      issue

      came
      out.

      10
      kilometers
      or
      6.5
      miles
      when
      unrolled?
      A
     
     
      large
      Canadian
      newspaper
      uses
      about
