Save Animals With Your Voicemail January 9, 2008

Posted by Pulin Modi | Permalink | Comments ( 76 ) | TrackBack

What do members of Alkaline Trio, Incubus, Simple Plan, Shadows Fall, Good Charlotte, Clipse, and even the infamous Pharrell all have in common? Well, these musicians have all recorded voicemail messages for you to put on your phone because they care about animals.


Matt Skiba from Alkaline Trio
So here's what you need to do:

1) Check out our peta2 band voicemail page. Seriously, there's stuff on there from Alkaline Trio, Incubus, Simple Plan, Shadows Fall, Good Charlotte, Pharrell, and Clipse.

2) Put your phone up to your computer speakers and make one of the messages your voicemail.

3) Email us at StreetTeam@peta2.com to let us know which message you used!

4) Become the envy of all your friends because you'll have a cool message and be helping animals.

5) Wait a couple weeks and you'll have 1000 Street Team points in your account!


Chuck from Simple Plan

Imagine the look on your friends' faces when they call you to chit chat about some homework assignment and instead hear Pharrell telling them to check out peta2.com or Ben Kenney of Incubus encouraging them to consider vegetarianism! Brilliant!

If you don't really like what we've got on the voicemail page, just come up with your own script encouraging people to visit peta2.com (it can be as funny, serious, or creative as you want!), and we'll still hook you up with points when you email us to say how it went.

Cool deal, amigos?

Rock!

Everyone who has listened to it has made a pleasant comment. Well, more like, "that was weird, as they laughed in awkwardness."

I love these. especially as a lot of my friends usually get fed up with me always jabbering away about animal rights, but one went and signed the 30 day pledge after hearing Simple Plan talking about what a great thing it is.

You guys always collect the coolest stuff.
