The Echelon House for Haiti

ECHELON HOUSE FOR HAITI



HOUSE FOR HAITI` - AN ECHELON HOUSE PROJECT

As many of you know, the Echelon House is a project orchestrated by the fans of rock band 30 Seconds to Mars, working with Habitat for Humanity on an international level to help build homes for those in need.

Now more than ever, they need our help.

The disaster in Haiti in January of 2010 is another sobering reminder of how lucky we are, and how fast things can change.

As our main Echelon House page directs funds internationally, we have started this page to direct funds directly to Haiti during this time of crisis. At a later date, these funds will be `transferred` to our main Echelon House page, and added to our totals as a group.

**FYI- these links apparently do not work with the firefox browser, but you can find them at www.echelonhouse.com**

Our main Echelon House page


Of course, all items for sale on our website are available for this page as well as the main Echelon House page. There is a ton of info and helpful hints, take a look below:

As an international fanbase, we come together in numbers - there`s no limit what we can achieve when we work as a whole.

Please consider giving to this worthwhile cause in this time of crisis.

As always, contact me at echelonhouse@gmail.com with any questions.

Even with your growing popularity over the past couple of years, you always try and make time to talk to fans, even outside of signing lines and formal meet and greets. It's obvious that it's nothing you have to do, so what is it that makes you want to engage with your fans in a more casual setting?
BECAUSE WE LOVE YOU GUYS AND LOVE TALKING TO YOU AND HEARING WHAT YOU THINK!

How do you determine when a song/album is really finished to go to the process of mastering? Is it based on gut feeling you get from listening or a check list that's marked of?
