Update #8: Backers, Seek Ye Rewards

Posted on August 17, 2009

First, another thanks for helping me meet my goal.

Now, the fun part. If you gave at a certain level, you will receive the gift specified. If it's a children's book, let me know 1. which you'd like (Elvis or the Beatles) and 2. the name of the child you want me to sign it to and 3. your mailing address. Our posters aren't ready yet but they're coming along and I'm also holding off on our surprise gift, as I haven't finished it.

But do write. Geoff

House call. As long as you live in the United States or my plane ticket won't run more than $500, I'll come to your home with my iPod so I can share my favorite Kinks songs as well as tell stories about the making of this film. I'll also bring a rough cut along so you can get a sneak peek of the movie.
