Ready, Set, ROCK ON!

It's so hard to believe that Thrill Day is here! Well, minus 1 day and 8 hours, according to the trusty countdown clock. Everybody has done such a great job of preparing, and I feel confident that all you awesome zombies can relax and concentrate on having an amazing time on Saturday.
  Here's how the day will work (we hope ):

1.The first make up appointments start at 1:00, so that's the true beginning of Thrill Day. For most participants, though, I'm going to suggest not arriving earlier than 2:00, and 3:00 is fine. The staging area is in the CENTRO CULTURAL.

2. As soon as you get there, SIGN IN and GET A NAME TAG, both requirements for the world record. If you want to go out on the plaza and mingle, grab a red cross donation thingie and go ahead. We may have some stickers or goodies to hand out in exchange for donations or photo ops.
Enjoy your celebrity!

3. There will be a group photo, also a world record requirement, in the centro at 3:30. I think that will make a really fun souvenir. Prints will be available next week for $50 pesos, all proceeds to the Cruz Roja.

4. Our sound guy will have a playlist that is timed to play Thriller at exactly 4:00. The first song is
   Somebody's Watching Me by Rockwell. Then you will hear the Emergency Broadcast followed by Superstition, I was a Teenage Zombie, and I Want to do Bad Things to You.

The Emergency Broadcast will play a second time. That's the signal for the Official Thrill the World. The songs are subject to change as I try to get the timing down to the nano second, but the Emergency broadcast will not. It will play, be followed by several songs, and play again, which is your cue.

5. At the conclusion of Thriller, remember to hold your pose until the song completely fades out, and then feel free to give yourselves a huge cheer! The next song will be Walk and Wine, by Byron Lee. I'll start a Conga line and we'll dance across the plaza to the parade vehicles, which will be parked on Hidalgo. They should be in place by 3:30, and then the street will be closed.

6. We'll parade over to six corners and dance again...it's not required! But it is a nice inter community gesture, and I'm really pleased we're being asked to do it. After that, we'll parade back and party like Zombie rock stars for the rest of the night!

7. Stay tuned for a invitation to a "debriefing" on  Saturday November 8, which will be a chance for us all to get together and share our experience and get the last necessary filming of rehearsal scenes shot for the movie, planned for release in December!
