BULLETIN: Vote for Maria TODAY! And EVERY DAY!
=====================================================
Comedy Central is holding another Standup Showdown. The top 16 comedians, as determined by a popular vote, will be aired on January 24.

Maria needs your vote to let Comedy Central know how much we want to see more of her, especially with her new TV pilot about to be presented to the network brass

Maria started at #9 on the list... but she's slipped out of the top 16 already. WE NEED ALL FANS TO VOTE FOR MARIA EVERY DAY!! STARTING NOW!! And if you can recruit friends to help... go for it!

You are allowed to vote once a day, so go back daily and cast your vote for Maria Bamford at:

Correction on Live Appearance
=====================================================
Whoops... my mistake!

Turns out there IS a Hilarities Comedy Club in Cleveland, OH and Maria will be appearing there the week of March 13 - 18... NOT Akron as originally reported. Check the calendar on the website for more details.

Thanks to SuperFan Brian for catching that one!

Maria Fan Picture Page
=====================================================
I'm finally going to make a little time in my schedule to set up a Maria Bamford Fan Picture Page this weekend. This page will feature pictures submitted by fans of themselves with Maria at performances, etc.

So, if you have a photo of yourself and Maria you'd like to share, email me a digital copy, or send me an extra print I can scan, along with a few details about the photo I can include (your name, when and where the picture was taken, etc.).

And, please... no fake Photoshop grafts of yourself onto a photo of Maria. We want this to be a true and accurate visual history of Maria appreciating her many fans. :-)
