Update #9: 14 Hours & Counting
Hey Y'all!
14 hours are left until our kickstarter campaign comes to an end. Thanks to you we have raised $7,000.00 and possibly more depending on how today goes. We are really excited that we are going to have the budget to do some marketing/promotional things that would not have been possible otherwise. You all mean the world to us and we will start getting everyone's rewards ready!
Thanks again! Also, if you are based in Atlanta, GA or somewhere close then we hope that you will come out to Smiths Olde Bar this Saturday night.
Thanks so much! We did it!
Update #8: 22 Days Left!
We are almost to the $7000.00 mark and can't thank all of you enough for your support! We are stunned at the amount of love our fans have shown during this project. We are interested to see how far we can all take this thing as the end is in sight.
Please continue to tell your friends and family about the project. It is really easy to do this if you have a Facebook or Myspace acount. If you look under our video on our kickstarter page you will see icons for each of the social networking sites. Click those and it will post to your profile.
We can't wait to share this new album with you!!!
THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER!!
Update #7: Some videos for you...
Thank you so much for all of your help! We are nearing the $6,000.00 mark and hope we can get to $7,000.00 before time runs out. That would be double our goal and give a good story to the project...
Below is a link to some cover song video clips for you all to enjoy. We will have the original songs up soon, but we had to get these done for college booking agents. Stay tuned.
PLEASE send the web address that you want linked on our website to garypfaff@gmail.com as soon as you can with kickstarter in the subject. We want to get everyone up on the site ASAP.
Thanks again! See you soon!
Update #6: Update
We are blown away that we have now crossed the $5,000.00 mark thanks to all of your donations. There are no words to describe the feeling of having so many fans/friends/family showing us such support. We have been working hard lining up a business plan to follow on the budget so that we can make the most of cent that we spend.
We also have added 2 more songs to the album. They came together very naturally and we can't wait to share them with you. Let's keep spreading the word and see if we can take this project even further by doubling our original goal. That would be something to talk about!!!
Thank you so much for allowing us to live our dream and do it right. Stay tuned for more updates soon including the video clips we mentioned a couple weeks back. We are hopefully picking those up on Friday before we hit the road again.
Also remember to send me (garypfaff@gmail.com) your website link that you want added to our website. We have only received 1 so far and we want to put up something for all of you backers.
Update #5: Update From The Road
Hey Ya'll -
Sorry it has been a couple days since our last update. We have been running ragged trying to keep things going on here on the road. We are so happy to see that we are already 115% funded - that is AMAZING!
Last night we had a couple people at the show tell us that they were upset that they hadn't donated yet and they thought since we had reached our initial goal that the project was over. It is NOT over. We still have 54 days left so please keep spreading the word and making your contributions.
Together -- we can make this record a huge success.
Lastly, We are sitting down on Monday to get the new live video cut for the website which should be cool and we will send all you Kickstarter backers a special video clip. Look for it!
Thanks so much!
