You get a video thank-you from me for supporting my awesome music, available only to backers, in which I will be wearing a variety of hats and glue-on facial hair. You will also get a copy of the EP on CD, signed by me while wearing a monocle. You won't see the part where I sign your CD while wearing a monocle, but rest assured, that's what's happening behind the scenes.

For less than the cost of a decent pair of pants, you get a hand-drawn thank you note from me, featuring the animal of your choice wearing the hat of your choice. Want a thank-you llama in a sombrero? A penguin in a top hat? You got it. Plus the rewards above including the video and autographed cd. AND I'll throw in an UNRELEASED TRACK that is ONLY available to backers.

You will get everything above-the EP, video, unreleased track, and drawing- PLUS a mix CD from me of music I think you'll really like based on our lasting friendship and feelings for each other, with hand-drawn (and probably jared-leto-as-jordan-catalano-themed) cover art. BFFs 4-EVA!

You get a 20 minute Skype or video chat hang-out with me, in which I play you some songs and you tell me how great I am. We can also talk about your horrible boss, and how cute your cats are. Whatever! Nothing is off limits! You can tell me about your childhood. Maybe I'll write a song about it. PLUS everything above (except the poster).

For this you will get a DVD of me and a bunch of the people involved in this record, talking about the engineering, production, songwriting... and if that isn't interesting to you, they'll also be saying hi to you, and thanking you for helping to feed their families during this tough economic downturn. You will ALSO get EVERYTHING above, including the handmade poster. You ALSO get glossy behind-the-scenes photos of recording sessions with producer Chris Kuffner, as part of a lovely care package including several unreleased tracks by Polly Ammo that are ONLY available to backers who are as wealthy and discerning as you are.

I will bring the drinks/soda and a lovely bouquet of flowers that I will hand pick on my way to your house. I will entertain you with stories of my college shenanigans while we listen to 90s music on my ipod. We will become best friends. *Dinner will be either grilled cheese or something involving eggs since that is all I can cook. **Also everything above, hand delivered to you by me.

You have funded my project. You get to pick my next tattoo. I am being totally serious. As long as it's not a trademark, cartoon character, or obscene. You pick it, I ink it. I'll get the whole thing on video and credit you for the idea, and post it on the internet. Come on, this is totally worth the money.
Estimated delivery: May 2012

As a official Fanilow, I would love to see " I Can't Smile Without You"

Jacqui, you are amazing and you know that D and I were your earliest supporters! You are the reason for out marriage and out first child... If we can could afford to fully back you we totally would fund your entire project. Since we can't, we'll repost your link to as many people as we can. We love you for who you are as a person first and your tremendous talent second. If there is anything we can do aside from financial support you, please let us know and we'll do whatever we can to make this EP a reality! Love you and wishing the best for you and here's hoping that we can enjoy what will eventually become of your unbelievable EP. Love D&D.
