    5 hours to go... $20 to $750...

    Can we do it?

    We're just $20 away from everyone who's contributed more than $15 getting a FREE copy of "Swing! The New Retro Renaissance" in addition to everything else already offered!

    But, the kind of person I am, we're so close I'll probably just include it to everyone who gave that much anyway...

    wOOt!

    Congratulations, we collected over 500 clams, now it's time for the bonus round!

    Our friends at RE/Search have promised that if we can get over $750, everyone who's contributed more than $15 will get a FREE copy of "Swing! The New Retro Renaissance" in addition to everything already else already offered! So... tell you're friends and let's see if we can collect just a little bit more!

    Correction

    Admission to 4 events is $25 not $20... as about 5 of you know. :-)

    3/5th's of the way there!

    Thank you so much for your support! So, we just launched on Monday, and we're already 60% of the way to our goal!!!

    If there's anything you can do to help spread the word, that would be awesome, because the next 40% is going to be the hard part. Keep in mind, we're not asking for charity, in a way we're just asking if you want to come. Admission to each event will cost $7 and you can get the whole month's admission by supporting us on Kickstarter for $20!

    So, make sure your friends know now and encourage them to donate. :-)
