Comedic Storytelling by Clay Cox (Video & Pics)

Did you miss our live video broadcast event? Well if you did or if you just want to watch it again here it is. This is an unedited video and since we started recording the event early for the benefit of our live viewers the actual program doesn’t start until 3 minutes in. You can start from the beginning or skip to 3 minutes in if you want. Enjoy!

Auburn local Clay Cox performed at AK’s Coffee on Thursday, September 4th, 2008 at 7:30pm. It was broadcast live on AuburnCoffee.com and this is the video that everyone watched online! This was Clay’s debut performance that will also be used for demo purposes.

Live “Comedic Storytelling” Broadcast Coming

We will be broadcasting a live performance of “Comedic Storytelling” next week right here on Auburn Coffee. We are planning on capturing the live video performance of a local guy at a local coffee shop and broadcasting it on the front page of AuburnCoffee.com. We wanted to go ahead and give you a heads up so that you could plan to watch.

Right now it is tentatively scheduled for:
Thursday, September 4th, 2008
7:30pm

We will fill you in on more of the details closer to the event. Thanks for stopping by and we hope you can tune in to see this great upcoming event!

Cambridge Coffee Video

I stopped by Cambridge for a Cafe Americano, which was great by the way, and talked the girls behind the counter into doing a quick video for you guys here on AuburnCoffee.com! It’s the first video we’ve shot to publish on a website and we did put the girls on the spot but we think they did a great job! It was shot on an iPhone so we’ll work on sound and quality later. I hope you enjoy this video from Mama Sarah & Lacey from Cabmridge Coffee on College St. across from campus and next to J&M Bookstore.

Cambridge Coffee is open from 7a-10p M-Sa & 8a-8p on Sunday.

If you work at another coffee shop in town and want us to come by and do a video for you please contact us using our contact page and leave a phone number so we can arrange a time. Thanks!

A Letter to AC from Opelika’s Newest Coffee Shop

This is an email we received from Red Door June owner Rick Lanier that we thought we’d post for you. We always enjoy and desire as much interaction as we can get from our local coffee shops and this is an example of some great open communication. 

To Auburn Coffee:

Just wanted to drop a post to say thanks for mentioning our soft opening on AC and to let everyone know that both the coffee and floral sides of the house are operating at full capacity and doing well “by the tracks” in Opelika.

Also, I would like to personally invite AC and everyone visiting this great site back to rdj for another visit and for a great cup of coffee and pastry.

Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you at red door june coffee and floral soon.

Sincerely,
Rick Lanier
Owner

It’s Coming Soon

We’re going to name ‘Auburn’s Favorite Coffee Shop’ as voted by Auburn Coffee visitors before the end of this month. If you have not voted yet please do on the left side of this page. If you have a favorite coffee shop that’s not winning be sure to pass the word to your friends to come vote. This is our summer competition and we will give the award before starting our fall competition in early August.

Auburn Coffee in the Wild

Here is a pic we got of our promo at one of the local coffee shops. Let us know where you see Auburn Coffee promos in the wild or where you heard about AuburnCoffee.com!

Polls Open For Summer!

We have started our summer edition of “Auburn’s favorite Coffee Shop” poll! The poll is on the left of our site. Please vote now and let everyone know to come and vote on their favorites!
We have taken more steps to prevent any unfairness in this poll from our last one because at the end of the summer semester we will name “Auburn’s Favorite Coffee Shop as voted by AuburnCoffee.com visitors” for Summer 08. We will name a new winner every semester.

If you have trouble voting please let us know! However, if you come to Auburn Coffee and cannot vote on our poll there could be several reasons. The first reason is a little technical but basically it could be your computer cannot read something called javascripts. This is probably not the case however. In most cases, including the case that you are in a coffee shop reading this now, it is because we are taking several measures to ensure the validity of our poll. We are actively attempting to combat against multiple votes per person, etc. If you are at a coffee shop now try again at home. You’ll probably be able to vote there. However, if you really are concerned that you cannot vote for some other reason please contact us via our contact page and we will work to resolve this issue for you.

Thanks for visiting Auburn Coffee and thanks for voting!
