There are those marketers who do things just a little better. And we salute those individuals with the seventh edition of the BSotMC(Bumper Sticker of the Month Club). If you’re one of the elite ones, look for yours in the mail shortly. If you’d like to apply for membership, there’s only one way. Good luck.

If you didn’t attend the Bonnaroo music festival via streaming video from the comfort of your air conditioned living room, you can always catch the archives of the performances at The ATT Blue Room. You can peruse the Coachella Festival highlights too.
