      I just doubled my pledge, I really hope others can do the same. There's only 4 days to go and this album NEEDS to get made!

      While doubling is probably impossible for me, I did decide my budget could handle another $25. Just because I want to get one level, doesn't mean I can't go over another few bucks.

      Fuck it, only 6 days to go!
      If most of us double their pledge we'll make it. Just doubled (2,5x) my pledge as a start, come on guys!

      I think if I had $350 I would request to hear you play "People Ain't No Good" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, you know, just in case I could influence anyone...

      They won't say! Trying to decide, apparently, between "the ridiculous and the sublime."
