I finally came up with some stretch goals for Kickstarter of Sci Fi Drinking Songs. Since my financial goal is already met, what I really want is to have more geeks and Celts to find out about the album through the kickstarter. You can send people to this URL: https://marcgunn.com//kickstarter/ to make a pledge.
Social Stretch Goals
For the social stretch goals to be met, you need to share this Kickstarter on Facebook or Twitter. Other social networks are great too, but Facebook and Twitter are the main ones. Use the hashtag #scifidrinkingsongs for all your shares and tweets.
When these goals are met and the campaign ends, I will send everyone on the list some bonus songs. These will all be simple mixes featuring me and the autoharp.
500 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “Hero of Canton”, the ultimate Firefly drinking song as performed by yours truly.
1000 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “Happily Ever After”. This is an old recording I ran across while looking up songs to release on this
1500 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “Lost in the Blood”. This will eventually be released on the Brobdingnagian Bards next album. You can own a stripped down version of it.
2000 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “Wherever I May Roam”. This is the lead track from one of my next album.
2500 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “I Met a Friendly Halfling”. This was a song from my album Don't Go Drinking With Hobbits that did not make it to the final CD.
3000 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “Sail the Sky”. This was recorded for the final live performance of Firefly Drinking Songs. It did not make the final cut, but I still have it on my personal playlist, because I love it.
4000 Shares and Tweets. I will send you an MP3 of “Irish Diddling”, a song I wrote for St. Patrick's Day for Kids CD that I plan to release next year. It's a fun sing-along that works great while drinking or not.
5000 Shares and Tweets. I will write and share another drinking song based on one of these topics: Firefly, Star Wars, Star Trek, Red Dwarf, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, based on your vote.
Financial Stretch Goals
For these Stretch Goals, physical copies will be mailed to everyone who gets a copy of the CD. Digital copies will go to all supporters.
$3600. I will create a four-page booklet with additional details about the album.
$4800. I will create an six-page booklet with additional details about the album, plus I will include two recipes for Sci Fi drinks.
$6000. I will create an eight-page booklet with additional details about the album, including four Sci Fi drink recipes.
$8000. I will create an eight-page booklet with additional details about the album, including four Sci Fi drink recipes, and also lyrics for all of the songs.
$10,000. I will include “Hero of Canton” on the final album.
$12,000. I will write and share another drinking song based on one of these topics: Firefly, Star Wars, Star Trek, Red Dwarf, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, based on your vote. This song will be recorded with full instrumentation and added to the final album.
If you have any cool ideas for stretch goals that should be added, please feel free to let me know.
