    Thanks Tim! He's right. Most of you have filled out the survey. The message is for people who have not yet. It should be evident when you sign into your profile whether you have or not. Thanks! -BS

    THANK YOU!

    A huge thank you to all who pledged their support to make Cinemetropolis a reality! We can't wait to roll out the series of film shorts and the product line to accompany the album, and we look forward to hearing what you think. After all, we signed to you.

    For those who wished to pledge or want to continue to support, keep a lookout on http://bluescholars.com for the launch of our webstore, where you can cop the digital release, the CD, and even the snazzglasses. 

    Thanks again!!! - BS

    hey jeff --> the limited edition deluxe packaging is an exclusive CD packaging; you'll also get a digital download. It's not the same as the poster or the vinyl. thanks for asking! BS
