    SDF in Miami! New Photos! Opening night tonight!

    Hello Backers and Supporters,

    Team SDF is currently in Miami at Miami Light Project's beautiful, new, downtown space: The Lightbox at Goldman Warehouse.  We had our first dress rehearsal last night, and director D.J. Mendel took some beautiful shots (see below).

    As we prepare to open SYMPHONY FOR THE DANCE FLOOR in Miami tonight, we're getting so close to our $7,500 Kickstarter goal!  We have 4 days to raise a little over $1,300.  Remember, if we don't raise at least $7,500, we won't get any money for SDF.  It's all or nothing - We're coming down to the wire, but I know we can do it. 

    THANK YOU so much for the help you've already given.  Please help us get across the finish line.  Facebook / Tweet / Text / Message / Email your friends.  Let them know about this amazing project.  Pre-order the CD for $10-25.  Get the CDs and T-shirt for $100.  Tickets for the shows are on sale, but almost SOLD OUT!! You can get them here on Kickstarter but pledging $300 or more.  Every $1 helps.

    We cannot do it without you!

        Your music is the soundtrack for my "need to be". You are essential... that is why I am a supporter.

        Begging for Your Affection reminds me of the entangled conflict between self-preservation and selflessness, awareness and denial, necessity and desire, dominance and surrender…the song lends voice to one’s bruised ego when you realize you are only fully alive when you live for someone else’s affection.
