	We only have 11 more signed copies of District 97 Featuring John Wetton-One More Red NIght available, and 3 days left of the campaign. If you're a D97 and Crimson fan, this is a pretty cool Kickstarter exclusive. We're currently at $17,415, and against my better judgement, I have vowed to release a video of me singing karaoke to 'Born to be Wild" if we hit 18k . So, that's another reason, besides the awesome rewards, to pitch in if you haven't yet... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1801575573/district-97s-3rd-studio-album

	Hi folks, there are only 5 hours left to go at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1801575573/district-97s-3rd-studio-album. We hope you'll consider being a backer in these final hours! Here's a PSA from Leslie shot yesterday about the end of the campaign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs9e6l1v7wo Edited by District97 - September 30 2014 at 19:35

	Well, having missed this, what was wrong with saying to the band "Do some more paying gigs ? " If I came on here and said "aaaaand I really like two modular synths, a Bose PA, complete lighting rig AND if you do that.... I'll start doing live gigs" then I'd expect splutters of disbelief and horror. $20,000 in the pot.... to record an album. Let's see. £500 in microphones, one home PC with a DAW, send the WAV's off to a studio and it's $200 a track to do the mixdown. Or just record a live gig. Amazing, really.

	I want a professionally recorded album,not some Pro Tools home recorded bullsh*t. That a small band like this can generate this much passion for their music amongst a small number of fans should earn your praise,not scorn.
