Update #17: A Final Congrats and Thank You
WAHOO!
Final Kickstarter Update: all of the goods have been mailed out.* Your support has encouraged and challenged me more than a blog entry sufficiently communicates - but still, thank you, and congrats to you for bettering an artist!
Also, "liking" my Facebook page earnestly (and freely) helps Suzy Sellout book more shows and garner more press. The biggies want to know if anyone actually likes our jams - and I have a suspicion that you do - so get your like on and share it, per favore! That's where all of the updates are these days, anways. Don't be square, frère. (https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Suzy-Sellout/149253951788646)
Oh ya, non-Facebookers can always catch the news at www.suzysellout.com!
Ready for more,
Kathrine
*I still have a handful left from backers who haven't responded to any of my 14 emails. You geese! Send me your address, and then you'll be as happy as Leslie D. in Billings, MT.

Many out-of-towners have already received their foam fingers, tshirts, posters, CDs et al in the mail. New Yorkers, come get yours at the show! They're all labeled and enveloped, ready for true lovin. This includes Rube Tube donors.
We're bringing reams of new material to this gig, and will have great news to share when the curtain goes up. Hope you're there to hear it first :)
Yes I spell it without an 'e' in the middle,
Kathrine
Update #13: Mail away, mail away, mail away...
The time has come, my lovelies. The CDs are in my hands. I want to send them to you, but most of you live outside of NYC.
If you live beyond the 212 (if you don't know what the 212 is, you are mosdef outside) please email your address to: kathrine@suzysellout.com, and I shall play postwoman all week.
And if it's been a while, tell me how the heck you've been! I miss my CA peeps, mes français, my Dutchie! I hope you've been well since May 2010. Can't wait to hear from you.
Because I love you,
Kathrine
