Update #8: Coup D'é Ta-Ta's

Posted on June 18, 2009

Unfortunately, due to high demand, we can no longer offer a physical copy of our first album, Coup D'é Ta-Ta's, to new donors. As you can see in the original reward posting, the offer was only good while supplies last. Well, the supplies are gone!

Digital copies of the album will still be sent to any donor $5 and up.

One day soon, Coup D'é Ta-Ta's will be available again in some physical form (not necessarily a CD). If you already have a copy, hold on to it. It's a COLLECTOR'S ITEM!

Update #5: Pre-order our new album to help us reach $2000!

Posted on June 9, 2009

We’ve tallied your votes and set our new goal at $2000. With that much money, we’ll be able to print 1000 copies of our new CD in eco-friendly digipacks. Plus, we’re adding more prizes for everyone that pre-orders our new album!
To pre-order, all you have to do is donate at least $20! You’ll get our old CD (while supplies last -- we only have about 45 copies left!) and our new CD before it’s available in stores!
PLUS!! If we reach $2000 by July 10…
1) EVERY pre-order will receive an EXCLUSIVE t-shirt available ONLY to our Kickstarter backers! 2) We’ll give away not ONE, not TWO, but THREE vintage Lazer Tag helmets! The helmets will be awarded in a random drawing for all donors $10 and up.
We’re also adding another very special prize…
For just $400, one lucky AEW fan will receive dinner and game cards for four at ESPN Zone in Buckhead, VIP seats to Atlanta Falcons: Face to Face, the weekly Falcons pre-game show, filmed at ESPN Zone, and a personal meeting and autograph from Matt Ryan, Michael Turner or another of your favorite Falcons! (Check out the rewards section for more details!)

So, please forward this to all your friends and encourage them to PRE-ORDER OUR NEW ALBUM! For only $20, you’ll get our old CD (while supplies last), our new CD, and (if we hit $2000) an EXCLUSIVE Attractive Eighties Women t-shirt! That’s a deal that just can’t be beat!

Thank you for supporting Attractive Eighties Women!

xoxo,
Phoebe Cates

PS - If you've donated less than $20 and want to pre-order the album, you only have to make your total donation equal $20. You don't have to donate $20 MORE dollars.

Update #4: What should be our new goal? LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!

Posted on June 3, 2009

So, we've decided to let you guys decide on our new goal. We've set up a poll online to collect your votes. Here are the new options:

1. Use any extra money we make to help pay for mixing and mastering of the album.

2. $1500 - We can get 500 copies of our new album printed in eco-friendly digipacks, instead of plastic jewel cases.

3. $2000 - Get 1000 copies in digipacks, plus every donation $20 and up gets a NEW t-shirt EXCLUSIVE to our Kickstarter Donors!

4. $3000 - We can print our new album on vinyl, packaged with digital download cards.

5. $5000 - Forget the album and send Attractive Eighties Women on an all expenses paid weekend trip to the Bellagio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

6. You have a better idea? Vote for "Other" and write it in.
VOTE NOW!
Which of these is most appealing to you folks who've already donated? Which do you think would encourage even more people to donate? Let us know!

xoxo,
Phoebe Cates

Do you want to see the ultimate music/entertainment experience on the planet earth? Well, you could build a time machine, go back in time, put the Sex Pistols and Van Halen in a van together, light the van on fire and drive it over the edge of the Grand Canyon, OR you could go see Attractive Eighties Women!

Attractive Eighties Women are Atlanta's premiere comedycore extravaganza. They're Post-GWAR Kiss revivalists who sound like a cross between Molly Hatchet and an 8th grade talent show.

Seeing AEW perform live is like watching a tornado of two-hundred Led Zeppelins, out-of-control and bearing down on a South Georgia trailer park, picking up all the hot women and spinning them away to some distant rock n' roll Valahalla.

Their new album is about dinosaurs, AIDS, honey badgers, zombies and bass fishing legend Bill Dance. Donate today and YOU could help bring this album to life!
