Congrats! You helped the world's greatest high-school alumni funk band come to Los Angeles to blow some minds. We will thank you personally on our official Thunder Soul website.

Not only will we thank you personally on our official Thunder Soul website, we'll also send you a beautiful limited edition Thunder Soul poster printed for our SXSW premiere.

Everything in the $25 package, plus I promise to follow you on Twitter for at least the rest of 2010.

People love the THUNDER SOUL t-shirts so much that we're offering a new pledge level at $30 where the reward is just one of our amazing t-shirts. Be the envy of your entire neighborhood in our stylish blue shirts!

For patient backers only! At some point in the future Thunder Soul will be released on DVD. When that time comes, we will send you a Thunder Soul DVD signed by director Mark Landsman. (The Fine Print: At this reward level you will only receive the signed DVD, and you will not receive the Thunder Soul poster.)

Woah woah woah, you're willing to give us $50 to bring the Kashmere Stage Band out to Los Angeles? You get not only the website thank you, not only the limited edition Thunder Soul poster, you also get the badass double-disc CD "Texas Thunder Soul" containing 32 original recordings of the Kashmere Stage Band. Guaranteed to blow your mind (Note: guarantee is not actually a contractual guarantee, just a turn of phrase. But your mind will be blown.)

The "thank you" on the website, the poster, the CD, what more can a funk loving kickstarter backer want? How about a stunning collectible Thunder Soul t-shirt? This lovingly screen printed shirt comes on an athletic blue soft tri-blend American Apparel shirt. This fashionable shirt will make you the envy of your entire neighborhood. If not, you should consider moving to a different neighborhood.

Everything in the $100 package and I will give you a call personally to thank you and to answer three questions about independent filmmaking.

You get the "thank you" on the website, you get the "Texas Thunder Soul" double-disc CD, you even get the T-Shirt. What else can we do to reward the $250 level backer? How about a limited edition Thunder Soul poster signed by the filmmakers and members of the original Kashmere Stage Band. A true one-of-a-kind treasure for the funk and/or independent film lover out there.

"Thank You" on website? You're getting that. "Texas Thunder Soul" Double-disc CD? Yup, that too. Thunder Soul t-shirt? Of course. Thunder Soul poster signed by filmmakers and Kashmere Stage Band members? How could we not. What do you give the backer who has everything? How about a ticket to the June 26th Los Angeles International Film Festival screening of "Thunder Soul" at the Ford Amphitheater and following concert by the Kashmere Stage Band? How about we let you sit in the VIP section with the band and filmmakers and have an all-access pass to the event? Now I think we're on to something. The reward for the Los Angeleno who not only wants to support the funk, they want to experience it live in surround-sound style. And just for the hell of it we'll throw in a second t-shirt because we love you that much.

You already know you get the "thank you" on the website, the CD, the two t-shirts, and the signed poster. You know you get the ticket and VIP seating for the concert and the LA Film Festival screening on June 26th. In fact, we'll give you two VIP passes and tickets. The filmmakers will also take you out to dinner some time in June or July, and we will thank you personally in front of the whole audience at the Ford Amphitheater for providing this generous level of support in bringing the band to Los Angeles. You sir/madam are a king/queen amongst men/women.
