$45,000?

I wish them well and will happily preorder the digitals...but they might want/need to add a few premium support tiers to hit that mark.

Thanks for the information!

Most welcome news. I've never contributed to any crowd funding campaign before, but I'm tempted this time, because March 7th is a looonnngggg ways away. January 1st, seems and is much closer.

I’m in the middle of moving, but this is great news! I’ll chip in my $60 very soon. Excellent news!

oooh I badly want these on vinyl, anyone know if it's happening?

Very exciting news - Just put my pledge in at Tier 2 - as much as their music has meant to me over the years it's an easy decision. So looking forward to this!

Yeah I'd have happily done a $100 dollar tier for an extra T-Shirt or something!

[LeFrog]

Needless to say I'm excited!
One thing that is still unclear at this point is whether the CDs will be widely distributed worldwide after this Kickstarter campaign. In the video, Chris seems to suggest it might not be the case.
I'm still hesitating between Tier 1 or 2: I'll probably go for Tier 2 to support the band but I absolutely hate how bands sign CDs all over the artwork!
I'd actually like to know if I'll be able to buy a second pristine copy later, as I did for I Heard You Listening.

According to Brett, not right now.

I'm certain you could request your copies to not be signed.

I could, but the only time I tried this, it came signed anyway. I can understand it's a hassle for them to make an exception when they're signing hundreds of them.

Yeah. I mean...no comic book!?

I pledged. Looking forward to these!

I have a signed copy of "I Heard You Listening" and they signed the back of the CD gatefold/digipak. I have no idea if that's the norm for them or not.

106 backers so far

148 now so that's promising growth. It is an all-or-nothing kickstarter so I really hope they make it.

[JKL2000]

I just bumped it up one, for the CD tier.

[Dan Roth]

I pledged for Tier Two. Exciting news!

[Andy Ives]

I'm in for tier 2.

[Czyszy]

I'm totally backing this when I get my next paycheck!

[bigjohnwayne]

Backed tier 2.

I don't want to think about what happens if they don't make it!
