A Dispatch can be:

Dispatch is a form of logistics as used in the taxi, courier, and service delivery industries and for emergency services, whereby clients are matched to vehicles according to the order in which clients called and the proximity of vehicles to each client's pick-up location. Telephone operators take calls from clients, then either enter the client's information into a computer or write it down and give it to a dispatcher. In the first scenario, a central computer then communicates with the mobile data terminal located in each vehicle (see computer assisted dispatch); in the second, the dispatcher communicates with the driver of each vehicle via two-way radio.

In many countries, Emergency services are accessed by dialling a distinctive emergency telephone number.


Dispatch is a band. "A three-piece band that rose up under its own power, fueled not by clever marketing or expensive image campaigns, but by the sheer force of its music and the enthusiastic devotion of its legions of hard-core fans.

"With elements of rock, funk and reggae, Dispatch music isn't easy to define. Dispatch won over its fans the old-fashioned way: they earned it, gig by gig, fan by fan, driven by strong word-of-mouth and internet discussions about the band's powerful live shows, three-part vocal harmonies, and impressive instrumental prowess, eventually earning the band a massive underground following. Perhaps most of all, howerever, audiences tuned in to the band's obvious love for music and playing, and the genuine, long-standing friendship between its members: Brad (Braddigan) Corrigan on vocals, drums, guitar, and percussion; Pete Francis Heimbold on vocals, bass, guitar; and Chad Stokes Urmston on vocals, guitar, bass, and percussion."
