They started a \u201cpen-pal style\u201d exchange to pair up fans of the band The Cab from all over the world in order to help them make new friends globally.<\/p>\n<p>The Cab, founded in 2005, is a Las Vegas-based alternative rock band which is inspired by groups such as Fall Out Boy and Panic! At The Disco. The Cab released its debut album in 2008 and was called &#8220;The Band You Need to Know 2008&#8221; by Alternative Press magazine. Since then, the band has built a strong, loyal fan base.<\/p>\n<p>To commemorate this anniversary, over 130 fans have connected globally on Elfster to celebrate \u201cThe Cab Day 2014\u201d by using the site to assign pen pals.\u00a0 And even better, the band itself Tweeted about the exchange, so we think that\u2019s extra cool!<\/p>\n<p>According to exchange\u2019s three organizers Helen Showalter, Mandi Alva and Patty Matos, \u201cThe Cab Day is an event that seeks to bring together fans of the band The Cab around the world and to celebrate their music. It falls on April 29th, the anniversary of the band\u2019s first album \u201cWhisper War,\u201d and 2014 is our fourth year celebrating it. \u2018The Cab Day\u2019 currently has over 3000 followers on Twitter. It was started in 2011 by us, fans who became fans through The Cab in order to support them musically.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know first-hand how powerful music can be in bringing people together because it brought us together,\u201d they explained. \u201cWe try to foster an environment that\u2019s inclusive of every single fan, regardless of where they are in the world, how young or old they are, or how long they\u2019ve been a fan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The group originally used Elfster to set up a Christmas gift exchange. \u201cWe used it as a way for fans of The Cab to get to know each other and become friends,\u201d they said. \u201cFor \u2018The Cab Day 2014,\u2019 we wanted a way to connect people and be able to assign pen pals. We remembered Elfster and how great it was and thought<strong> it would work perfectly!<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The organizers think Elfster makes the whole process easy and it definitely allows them to enjoy the exchange more. \u201cInstead of worrying about how to decide who gets who and having to get in contact with everyone to set it up, [we] can relax and be excited to find who [we] get matched with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Cab\u2019s fan base has always been really good at making the world seem a whole lot smaller than it is,\u201d organizers said. \u201c[we], personally, have made fans from across the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Exchange participants plan to take advantage of the social features Elfster has to offer, like the wishlist and questions\/answers. \u201cOnce people are paired, [we] think the question and answer feature will be really helpful to facilitate the first bond between the fans,\u201d they said. \u201cEven though most communication will be done via snail mail, it\u2019s nice to get a basic feeling on the person you\u2019re writing to and maybe swap twitter handles or full names.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And Elfster is so glad to help make these connections easier!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe real selling point of Elfster for us is the ease of use,\u201d according to the organizing team. \u201cAll of \u2018The Cab Day\u2019 organizers are students. We have jobs. Putting this together is our passion but we don\u2019t have all the time in the world for it. There are so many undertakings of \u2018The Cab Day\u2019 that have involved lots of hands-on attention, like starting a Street Team, selling bracelets and putting together fan meet-ups. The best part of Elfster was that we could do something really great to bring fans from all over the world together in a really easy, simple-to-do way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Cab will also release its latest single, \u201cLock Me Up,\u201d on April 29th, making this a huge day for the band and its loyal fans.
