Update #5 · Jun 4, 2011 · comment

It has been a few days now.  Since the big win.  It happened on our practiced night.  At kLoB practice, we got the news.  Unbelievable.  The big win.

And so, reflection...

We got one.  All of us.  Over 125 backers took kLoB to the Championships, and in the last minutes of the 4th quarter, we pulled it out.  All-Stars came on strong, we called them "the whales," and every backer's dollar was crucial.  Every penny, Guy, was important!

What a &%*^$&# team we have! 

We are so grateful, and so excited, and so bulging to make this video!

$12,034 in 45 days.

In the next week, we will be gathering your info, so please keep your eyes out for an e-mail.

Rewards are coming.  So is ETFT.  So is the video.

Spread the noise

Humbled!

Wow.  We are almost to the end of this incredible undertaking.  First, I was excited to hear the team wanted to make a video.  Then, I was stoked about their use of Kickstarter to try and raise the funds.  Then, I was blown away by the amount they wanted to go for.  I just never thought we would even come close.  Instead, we have come really close.  And there just may be a few tricks up the sleeves of the powers that be that may swoop down and finish this thing out. 

From me, Kip, first and foremost - I am completely honored by all of the support.  You guys are reaching out to help this band continue to do great things.  Even amongst the stress and challenges this complicated planet can present, you all have made the time to reach out and give.  Again, I am touched.  In a completely safe and socially correct kind of way, I am touched. 

Thank you so much.  We push on.  spread the noise.

The Wizard Sends Us His Hearts...

Update #3 · May 12, 2011 · 2 comments

As if the drive for Battleship could really get any better... it does.

The Wizard (Kip's Dad, lives in the desert, makes cool stuff, Big John...) has added a special touch of his own.

From this point on, anyone who already has, or finally does give $25 or more to the kLoB  Battleship Video Kickstarter Superdrive, will receive one of Big John's one of a kind glass hearts.

He just wants to help us out.

We have a steep climb to the top...

Have a heart.  Spread the noise.

And thanks from The kLoB Family

THANK YOU is the only way to start the second update.  Donations have come from all over the place, and from so many great persons.  I mean, Hawaii?  The Big Apple? DeFuniak Springs!!??  What is this kLoB thing doin?!?  You guys are all really fantastic and so appreciated. 

See how easy they've made this look?

  There is a huge button right on the site that says "Donate $5 Now." 

      Look at it this way.

It's like buying one of us a beer.  Just a simple beer, on a cold, stormy night.  Alone and off the beaten path, at some lost tavern, a traveler enters, and shakes the water off his jacket.  With a nod, the bartender pours not one, but two pints of the perfect draught, and the strangers glance at each other.....

      That got a little weird.  Sorry.  No big deal.  $5.

Tell your friends about The Kickstarter kLoB Battleship Video Fundraiser. 

You spread the noise, and we'll spread the love.

Talksoon.

 YOU who have already donated to the kLoB Battleship cause,  YOU are the innovators, the leaders, the spearheaders, the drivers, the forge-aheaders! 

     We are so thrilled to have your support.  You have no idea how good it feels to know y'all are behind us and want us to push on.  Awesome. 

     Now, go and brag to your friends about how easy it was and how great it made you feel inside!  Tell them, "you don't have to give as much as I did, but you really should give something.  I mean come on, cheapie!  Do it already!"  That's what you should say, just like that. 

     Again, huge thanks and we'll see ya at a show soon.

SPREAD THE NOISE !
