Black Tape For A Blue Girl Kickstarter Add-ons
WE MADE IT! Get ready, because this is happening!
We made it!!! The Kickstarter for Black Tape For A Blue Girl’s These fleeting moments reached the $12k goal Thursday, and we’re almost to the first stretch goal (which adds a bonus CD to the package). There are 2 more days on the campaign, this is exciting! I’ve created some add-ons for pledgers, to get even more cool stuff.
Add-ons are additional items you can add to your pledge.
Add-on instructions
1 Determine the total cost of the item(s) you would like to add from the list below.
• Include postage for overseas orders.
2 Visit the Kickstarter page and click the blue “Manage” button that appears next to your current pledge amount.
• If you have not pledged yet, it will say ‘Back this Project.’
• Add-ons require a pledge at the $25 or higher tier,
3 On the next page, select “Update your pledge”
• Increase your pledge in the ‘Pledge Amount’ box by the total of the add-ons you want.
• Do not change the tier you are currently pledged at unless you also want to increase to a new pledge level. In that case, you will then need to add the total of your add-ons to the amount of the new tier you choose.
• Accept the new total.
4 Send a message to Sam (via Kickstarter) with a list of the items you want.
Do I need to add shipping/handling?
Maybe. Shipping & handling is included for U.S. backers. Additional worldwide shipping as specified below.
Add-ons to choose from:
1 — The Rope LP – handmade cover (100 available) ($25)
The vinyl itself is “new old stock” pressed in 1986. The covers are handmade in 2016, with color photos glued to a one-color printed black LP jacket. Album title written by Sam, and signed by Sam.
Please note this important disclaimer: Due to the age of the unplayed vinyl, there is some warping. If you are opposed to any warpage on your LPs, please do not select this item. I asked the most exacting Blacktape vinyl customer to review a copy. He writes: “True, I like to have a ‘perfect’ record, but still this plays out and the warping issue is not audible. The only way to know it’s warped is to look at it. The warp on mine is not a bother to me. Others might have issues with it, of course. When I replayed my copy with a record weight it was flat warp free.” Also keep in mind the vinyl has been in storage for 30 years, so the album will need a wet cleaning to remove dust and such.
