We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on June 25, 2012.

Wow!

Update #1 · May 29, 2012 · 2 comments

We are stunned and grateful for the amazing outpouring of support on just this first day!  We're already one fourth of the way to our official goal in this Kickstarter campaign, and we want to thank each and every one of you who has stepped up to help.

So, if you'd all just line up alphabetically in front of my house, I can get started.  . . . . I'll wait . . . .

Meanwhile, please continue to spread the word about this project.  We're very excited to release the album, and every dollar raised beyond our hoped-for goal will go into publicity, and advertising, and just generally making for a relaxed guitar player, thus ensuring the most successful treatment possible.

We love you, and we're forever in your debt . . .

George

      I, for one, am not surprised at all by the support for you. It has snowballed as I would have suspected it would. The love you generate in your concerts comes back to you...and never at a better time.
      Love, MaryAnn (and Wayne) Mueller
