Update #6: We did it!
Hey y'all.........
We cannot thank you guys enough for wanting to be a Kickstarter campaign. Seriously, After Edmund has the best fans ever!!!
Over the next week or so we will be rolling out our backer surveys in order to collect information from you guys about your incentives. Everything that we need to know from you (shirt sizes, video chat scheduling, shipping information etc.) will come through these surveys, so please be as accurate as possible when filling them out.
As well, the recording process of this album is moving along steadily. We already have 4 songs completely recorded and we are loving the way they are turning out. For updates on the new record and everything else we are up to, please Like our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/afteredmund. We'll be sure to keep everyone updated on there as well as through this page.
Thanks again, guys....... we love you so much!!!!!

Update #5: Only 24 hours left!!!
Hey everybody!!!!
We cannot believe that there is only 1 day left in this thing!!! We're currently sitting at over $18,000(90%!!) pledged to the funding of our new album and have just about $2,000 to go. We can't even express how insanely grateful we are to all of you guys. For real..... thank you!!
To celebrate the campaign, tomorrow night we are streaming a concert live from Raleigh, NC. Please check out http://www.ustream.tv/channel/after-edmund at 7pm EST if you are interested in partying with us via the web.
Also we are currently running a contest with our good friends over at ChristianDroid.com to figure out who the biggest After Edmund fan is. Make sure to head over to http://bit.ly/kickstartercontest and tell us your story. Tomorrow night we will be selecting a winner from all who comment on that blog, and that person will have $50 pledged to this campaign in their name, as well as receive the corresponding incentive pack (free cd + t-shirt!!!).
So one last time....... thank you guys so much for being a part of this with us. We are absolutely blown away by your generosity and continuing pledges and upgrading of pledges. We seriously have the best fans in the world.
We love you guys!!!

Just wanted to give you guys a quick update on how well things are going with this project........

We are pushing to get to $6,000 by tomorrow night - and if we can do that, all (EVERYBODY) who have backed us by then will be receiving a FREE vintage AE poster with their incentive.
And to help the campaign get to that point we are throwing a party that you are invited to!!!
At 8:30pm EST tomorrow night we will hanging out be at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/after-edmund singing After Edmund songs (old & new), some covers, answering your questions and giving away some cool prizes for you guy. So make sure you put that on your calendar to come and party with us...........
Other then that, we want to give you guys a heart felt thank you from all of us in the band. We are so appreciative of your continued donations and support. We're feeling the LOOOOOVE!!!
Seriously, you guys rule.

I am confused. The countdown says you have 4 days to go. This is Sunday and you end on Friday, is that midnight or Friday noon? either way isn't that 5 more days? gp

Can't wait to hear the final project!!
