the sms was like that:
“Him: a young graphic designer dressed in black. Her: a Russian vintage model dressed in white. Place: McCann Garage Sale. Love at at first sight… and now their adventure begins :) a”
yes, our Garage Sale was that… “productive” is the word? even love stories.
hint: she was a white old bicycle parked at the entrance
guys - and girl - from Stillborn (where our Legal Officer Catalin Gurau is a prolific drummer) played their first unplugged session at our event:
sound was great, and as they relate on their Facebook page, they loved the energy exchange!
tx guys, si la mai multe!
we started pouring pictures (111 up there already, and counting, so return often) from the event on our Facebook page… so that tagging & liking & commenting can begin RIGHT NOW! )
PS: sorry for delay, vacations and all

judging the amount of cheers, thx and “when/what is next?!” feedback flowing in, it was a great event, wasn’t it?
and apart from thanking almost every one in the Agency for getting involved and making it happen in one way or the other, or our Clients, people we do business with and just friends who offered full support, we got to thank you - YOU, Garage Sale visitor and shopper!
in just 4+ hrs so many of you showed up, had a great time aaaand voted with your wallets to make a difference where it matters.
this week, as we returned to office, we propose the following:
1) share plenty of pictures (and if you got yours, hit me with a mail or direct link if posted already)
2) take pictures of a few remaining items on sale, so that even if you couldnt come (and we understand, it was a seaside-friendly w/end), you can still browse through the catalog we’ll post and buy it online by next Monday
3) once all sale is closed, share the final sum we gathered, and give you details on how we’ll make sure they reach the right people
hugs from the organizing crew!
things are getting ready since morning (and notice the jars we promised) ))

how else than this we can announce all our friends who’s gonna help us make this a wow event, taking care of the music? this is sooo exciting!
check it out:
20:00 Alex Rosu kicks it off with his DJ set
at 21:00 Stillborn, where the drummer is (surprise!) Catalin Gurau, our Senior Legal Adviser, have prepared a melodic, feel-good unplugged session of their own stuff and covers of Skunk Anansie and Green Day
around 21:45 we’ll start the auction - some lots have been announced here, and there are more that didn’t fit, like Mad Men of McCann… (tip: unique chance to get a 1 hr personal lesson of Photoshop with Adrian Botan, our Creative Director) Running it: our own MC Platon + CRBL
at 22:15 Mihai Dobre from Suie Paparude, aka Haute Couture, treats us to his music deliciousness
next up, cca 23:00 - our good-good friend Rock DJ (when non-DJ-ing, Catalin is a talented editor with some heavy-weight movies behind his belt - California Dreaming, When I Want to Whistle, I Whistle, and more)
and then the evening closes with a kicker from Camil - we featured his photographic work for www.artbyburn.ro project, among the 20 artists/ 20 ideas/ 20 videos, yet his music talents and skills are as widely appreciated
just a thought: is our garage the luckiest garage in the world tonight? come come
jukebox x guitar x Stefan Stroe…
enough hints? )
yes, impossible comes possible tomorrow only: from 20:00 to 21:00, Stefan - in everyday life a friend, a family man and an independent brand strategist - does a “jukebloke” in our garage, playing and singing any melody you choose from his playlist.
of course, versus your “golden”.
first come, first served, so we suggest you show up early
