What Does Sherpa-Derpa-Palloza Have to do With Teamwork?
May 11, 2007 | by brett | Permalink
In a classic “listen to your gut and follow your passion” type of moment, Jay Whiting’s infectious enthusiasm for the events this upcoming weekend convinced me to sporadically travel to Santa Barbara. Jay is one half of the hip-hop group Class Project, and is an integral part of the 2007 Pursue the Passion team. Jay’s partner in crime is Noah Pollock, who shares the same passion for music and completes our roster for the upcoming roadtrip.
This weekend they will be playing in the Sherpa-Derpa-Palloza music festival at the high spirited Santa Barbara campus. Over 500 people will attend, and it is one major break in Jay and Noah’s pursuit to break into the music industry.
I am joining these guys this weekend because this mini-roadtrip is the definition of how our team is there for each other. Just like these guys are going to be by my side for the Pursue the Passion project, I am going to be there for Class Project breakthroughs. This is what teamwork is all about.
More pictures, updates, and entries to come…concert is Saturday and I’ll be back Monday.
