Matt,

count me in for sunday's pickup palooza
Creator Amy Rachell on May 9, 2011
I'd like to get my poster on Sunday please. The video makes me laugh. In a good way.
Creator Mark Love on May 9, 2011
Hey Matt!! I cant be there Sunday but since I'm there most every single Monday I could totally swing that. Definitely don't mail anything across town. If I cant catch you on a Monday then we will connect in between. Most awesome project and a pure pleasure to be able to help.
Creator Christi Carew on May 9, 2011
Love all the updates. If you are inclined to hold our stuff until July, we can get it in person. =) Otherwise send it along. Can't wait to get though.
Creator supnah on May 9, 2011
Heya... just wanted to say this has been an extremely satisfying kickstarter project to back. Thanks for all the fan love, and awesome work on all of everything. Looking forward to your next stop in PDX.
Creator Stuart Yaniger on May 9, 2011
Won't be there this weekend (travel), but haul mine along to the Wyldwood show; I'll be there with the whole family again. Congrats on getting this across the goal line.
Creator a.schyler on May 3, 2011
Hi,
I'm so glad you are fully funded. It was great to participate in all of this.
Is there a way I can contact you, though? I filled out the survey, but my mailing information has changed since then. I will be forwarding my mail, but I don't want to risk losing your work.

Creator scott cunningham on April 28, 2011
I am traveling to Austin, Tx. on May 16th and plan on seeing you play live that Monday night. Looking forward to seeing you and hearing you live.

Creator Karen Mather on March 28, 2011
I'm sure many of your fans would wait to get the CD at one of your shows, thus saving you and your family the cost of shipping. I know that I would. I was going to put that comment on my "survey", but there wasn't a way to do so.
Congrats on the funds raised, that is so awesome!!!
Creator Amy Nylund on March 10, 2011
What a joy to see this unfold! Congratulations you guys!
Creator kara porter on March 10, 2011
Matt and Kathie ( and Arlo and Ramona), I"m so happy and excited for the whole Electrician family. I know how much this money and the support of your community means for you guys. I know it has been and will be put to fantastic use! It's been pretty awesome to watch the pile grow. COngratulations! and I can't wait to hear the album. ( And I'm glad to see you singing,Kathie. I remember singing along to the Pirate Movie with you) Love you guys!
Creator sarah sample on March 10, 2011

I love, love, love the video of the two of you singing. Thank you.

Creator Fabian Becker on March 9, 2011

Creator Pamela Werner on March 9, 2011
So glad I ran into your dad (not literally but almost) today so I could be a part of this. Keep up the great work and look forward to your next show!
Creator Amy Rachell on March 9, 2011
omigod, Kathie, thank you for the belly-shaking, outloud laugh!
Creator Jason Mowery on March 9, 2011
Kathie, thank you for the video, especially 'living on a prayer'. That was down pat. Looking forward to the new album and seeing more of the Electrician's talent on display. We love you guys.
Creator Jeanie Brown on March 9, 2011
Ah, me. Sitting in front of my computer at 9:40 AM, by myself, laughing my ass off. Yea for George Micheal. You must like "Toto, too."
Creator Marianne Rasmussen on March 9, 2011
Phew, I am so grateful Matt writes his own stuff.... although Kathie's idea of a mixtape done the Matt the E-way does have a certain appeal LOL Looking SO much forward to receiving the new cd - and even more to a new visit from Matt in Denmark again. Seeing you as part of the House of Songs-tour last year was great and gave lots of us a CRAVING for more! All the best from Marianne/Denmark
Creator Michelle on March 9, 2011
Wow! I thought Matt was funny, but actually Kathie is hilarious. Matt, please bring her with you on tour! these updates are worth way more than the amount I backed so do this sgain soon.
Creator andy dickson on March 9, 2011
Still laughing at the awesome video that Kathie posted today! We love your music, Matt & we love your art, Kathie. Keep it up, Electricians! -Sincerely, Andy & Jenny Dickson
Creator Amy Rachell on March 6, 2011
I'm so glad your work got more notice as a result of this project. I love it. Hope to afford a bigger pledge and one of your works of art next time. P.S. My 85 year old mom makes stuff too. 85 with power tools.
Creator David B. Moore on March 5, 2011
Love all the videos. Thx! Decided to add another $20 so I can share MtE with a friend in Virginia. Not sure when/if I can give an alternate address for the mailing, but it'd be ideal if you can ship direct to her. Meantime, looking forward to catch MtE again at McCabe's and/or Saxon Pub.
Creator Josh Orth on March 3, 2011
Good luck, Matt and the Es! I am also proud to back Matt's beard with one of my very own. I offer this scan as proof:

Creator dana on March 3, 2011
Happy MTE day in Austin. We will celebrate here in LA. Go Matt go!
Creator Ethan Azarian & Melissa Knight on March 2, 2011
Checking everyday!! Loving seeing the balance grow and grow! Hooray! So happy and looking forward to hearing the new CD! Big love to the Sever family! What a great family project!! Some kind of wonderful!!
Creator Christos Sklavenitis on March 2, 2011
This is such great news to hear. What a great concept, this Kickstarter thing. I'm glad you've gotten at least a little glimpse, Matt, of how many people out there not only truly dig what you do, but will make a personal connection to it via support. If people will support public radio stations during pledge drives (which I'll be a decent number of your fans do), why not directly support the artists those stations promote.
Creator scott cunningham on March 2, 2011
You guys are doing a GREAT job of including us, your community, in your process. This connects me, and others I would assume, to you in an intemate, honest, and enlightening fashion. Thanks for being.
Creator kara porter on March 1, 2011
Wow! It's grown by $2000 today! I 'll keep spreading the word and we'll get you their, brother!
Creator Amanda Pasquali on February 28, 2011
matt's supporters rock!
Creator Amy Rachell on February 28, 2011
You're welcome.
Please can I share this video on fb so I can brag to my friends I was even a tiny part of this? Wonderful song, btw!
Creator Carrie Contey on February 28, 2011
You are welcome. And really, thank YOU! Sever family for all the total goodness that surrounds this project. It's an honor to be a part of it. Loving all the goodies, especially the handkerchief add-on. I'm fully intending to rock the Kerch this year. This will be a nice addition to my collection.
Big big love and awe for the whole shebang!
Creator Adelita Schule on February 28, 2011
New fan! Late to the party but happy to be here.
Creator Mark Smith on February 24, 2011
Say Hi to Southpaw Jones when you see him next for me.
Creator James B. Affinito on February 20, 2011
Remember, sex sells. Puts some nekkid ladies on the CD cover. With explosions too. Maybe some tigers or panthers or something to bring it all together.
