$200k over the goal in the first day...that'll work! so, i guess the additional money is funding a gratuity? it just seems like a pre-sale of the record and some cool collectibles at this point. not that i mind. i think it's interesting what she's doing.

[www.kickstarter.com]

I used to be way into AP, but then the band broke up and she got really weird. Like, crazy lady at the end of the block weird.

I'm not saying that I'm abstaining from the kickstarter, just that she got really weird. I'm waiting for her to have a britney-esque meltdown and defecate on a harpsichord or eat thumbtacks or something.

At least then the limited edition backer version of her new record will really skyrocket on ebay.

Hopefully, while eating thumbtacks.

oooh, she could do it while eating thumbtacks and reciting The Art of Noises in Farsi. When she's finished, I expect her to stand up, point to the log on the harpsichord, and yell to the audience 'CECI N'EST PAS UN TURD' before leaving the stage to start a new life as a potato farmer in Albania.

That's how I want it to turn out. A blazing fire of crazy and surrealist performance art.

i like AP, but that's a fairly pricey set of rewards. I mean, the dollar for a d/l is fantastic, but £30GBP for a record? That's like £15 for the record and the same again for postage. Ramping that up to £125 for a CD, record and 4 7"s makes each 7" worth, what... £20 each?

Hmmm...

Wasn't she killed in Twin Peaks?

her cheekbones are amazing.

I saw her tour a few years back and it was great then I saw her a year later and it was pretty bad.

No way I'd fund her kickstarter, she seems pretty bad with money. Like, her stuff sells decent and her shows are always packed. But she's always begging for money in one way or another.
