We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on September 8, 2011.

WE HAVE ONE WEEK TO SAVE THE WORLD.

Update #5 · Apr 5, 2013 · comment

With one week remaining on our Global Party Pandemic Kickstarter, we just crested $13,000 and are over halfway to our goal. If this Kickstarter is successful, it will enable us to take the Decentralized Dance Party worldwide, unite the planet in celebration, and Save The World.

The countdown is ON and with your continued support, we can definitely get there!

If the New Kickstarter gets you Way Inspired, there's many ways you can get involved:

1. Donating to the Kickstarter >>> we just added 100 limited-edition All-Cat-Print DDP Jammypacks, and there's tons more awesome rewards to choose from as well.

2. Sharing the Kickstarter with as many people as possible via Facebook/Twitter/Etc. along with a strategic sentence or two e.g. "Can Partying Save The World?"

3. We've just released some Custom Facebook Cover Pics and Epic Promo Flyers- please post, print and share them at your campus, cafeteria or place of business/worship.

4. We are creating a Youtube playlist that will feature 1-minute-or-less videos of Tom and Gary and The Elite Banana Task force and Anyone Else Who Wants To Be Involved, stating "What the DDP means to me" and "Why it's a cause worth supporting". These will be shared with the world in order to help convince folks that Partying is indeed a cause worth supporting and dying for. Please record yours, upload to Youtube, and send us the link :)

5. We ALSO have a plan to share our Top 100 Party Tracks with as many people as possible who want to host Independent GPP Kickstarter Fundraising Parties in their own towns/cities/homes THIS WEEKEND. Please reply ASAP if you want to partake :)

6. The Party Pandemic Press Page contains all the info required to either write an article on the DDP or craft a nice email to encourage your friends/family to donate :)

7. Posting the pic below on Facebook /Twitter /Google+ /Etc with the caption: "CAN PARTYING SAVE THE WORLD?" and the Kickstarter shortlink: http://kck.st/WOwhX1

FURTHERMORE!

We're about to begin accepting Bitcoin donations, so if you're a holder and would like to pledge your support using that beautifully Decentralized currency, please email us ASAP :)

Dear DDP Supporter:

After years of Trials, Tribulations, and Very Good Times, we're excited to announce the release of the Kickstarter that will launch the Global Party Pandemic of 2014:

IT IS RIGHT HERE---> http://kck.st/WOwhX1

And its successful completion will allow us to:
-Create a feature-length DDP Documentary Film
-Build the Global Party Pandemic website (featuring 192 simultaneous Kickstarters)
-Author a detailed strategy guide that will enable everyone to create their own DDPs
-Share the DDP with the whole world and win the Nobel Prize for Partying

Our most ambitious undertaking to date, it will only be possible with your continued support.

So!
Please check out the link above, contribute if you are thusly inspired, and SHARE IT ON.

This secret message allows you first access to all the limited-edition rewards, and if we move fast, we'll be added to Kickstarter's "Popular" list, the holy grail of Crowdfunding :)

THE PARTY REVOLUTION NEEDS YOU!

Phase Two of Party Safari 2011 was a SUCCESS!

Update #2 · Sep 21, 2011 · comment

With your help, we managed to throw 5 insane DDPs over 5000km in 10 days. Thousands came out to sing and dance and celebrate life to the fullest and we wanted to thank you again for your generous support!

The donor rewards will be shipping out in the next week or two and photo+video from Party Safari will soon be posted also, as well as the details of Phase Three of Party Safari 2011 (Eastern Canada tour) and a Kickstarter to match. The Party Revolution continues!

Unseasonably warm regards,

T&G

Dear Backer:

Thank you for generous support. We appreciate it very much.

Donations have been pretty slow and time is getting pretty low but we've finally got everything in place to implement a hardcore media blitz and start sharing the campaign with all our friends.

We've created a very elaborate press release that we'll be sending to thousands of media outlets within the next few hours. Please share her far and wide, and if u have any media contacts / blogger friends / twitter masters, please forward it to them: http://pitch.pe/170239

Please also keep sharing the Kickstarter and the Facebook event pages.

As well as the rewards page (new rewards released today) http://bit.ly/ib29fz

We have five days to make this happen. And we will!
