Ducky Boys to write a Thorp Warriors anthem?

XnMeX - 7-17-2012 at 01:48 PM

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/910056279/new-ducky-boys...

Ducky Boys have posted up a Kickstarter for their upsoming album. They have all sorts of levels from $1.00 - $150.00. For $150.00 they will write a song for you.

Anyone want to pool in some money for a Thorp Warriors Anthem? Haha.

sentrand - 7-17-2012 at 03:25 PM

yes

Vanilla Gorilla - 7-17-2012 at 04:56 PM

i'm in

XnMeX - 7-17-2012 at 04:58 PM

Lets see how many people would be interested and if it's not too bad we could all even split. Come on people! :tumble:

Dennis Mc - 7-17-2012 at 05:36 PM

Completely worth it. I'm in.

MattyA - 7-17-2012 at 06:58 PM

I'm in!

Mark Lind - 7-17-2012 at 10:13 PM

I could do this.

BDx13 - 7-17-2012 at 11:55 PM

wow, monty. just...wow.

9/20 backers already committed to that pledge level so only 11 custom songs still available. youz better started throwing down some financial commitments!

clevohardcore - 7-18-2012 at 12:21 AM

Name drops? I'm in.

panzerkreuzer - 7-18-2012 at 03:00 AM

I'll join this.

3rdDistrict - 7-18-2012 at 06:14 AM

i tried to find Mark at the baltimore show, but he's very elusive.

Mark Lind - 7-18-2012 at 03:25 PM

Daaaah! I walked into that one.

moron - 7-18-2012 at 06:48 PM

I already pledged, but I'm up for tossing in some money to get a Thorp Warrior song written.

random - 7-18-2012 at 07:14 PM

i'd toss in for this.

Mark, did you work out the numbers to see what contributions you'd need to get funded? Your highest package is $150 with a max of 20 packages (for a total of $3000, which is 20% of your funding goal of $15,000). A big chunk, over a third (actually, over half), of your current pledges are at the max level. This is an amazing start, but it leaves very little room for large contributions later.

Can you add new packages for higher contributions, like a private show in the northeast? A DVD of some sort? Maybe Ian can do a BFB one, since you mentioned,


Quote:
We've got a full EB launch, Sinners & Saints, Blood for Blood, the Eleventh Hour and more in the queue!


And if I pledge the $150 level, can I get you to repost the cover of Rob's song that he recycles some lyrics for a Ramallah song from? I think it was called "Somebody to love me" or something like that. Song was AMAZING.

XnMeX - 7-19-2012 at 08:38 AM

Alright, so far we would have to pitch in $15.00 each. Anyone else wanna join in? If you pitch in I will tell Mark to add you in as a name drop, if that works for him. :)

ChadBeantown - 7-19-2012 at 09:33 AM

That is the one issue I am not sure how to figure out... Becasue with Kickstarter if the goal is not met then the money does nt get charged. So, I would have to round up money in hopes that it goes through and if not I would have to send it back. Also, I don't have the money to front so I would need to round it up beforehand. Unless someone else has another idea or would want to tackle handling the money... I would not mind that one bit as long as it is a long time trusted "Warrior".

Mark Lind - 7-19-2012 at 12:52 PM

Doug wrote that thing up. We have nothing coming from Blood for Blood.

People can purchase a High 5 and still give $150 if they want. We're mostly looking to pre-sell copies of the CD/LP. But we might add another option similar to the original song where Doug or I will record a cover song for you.

XnMeX - 7-19-2012 at 02:52 PM

Kickstarter got me thinking... How about making a website called "Fuckstarter" or something of the like where people can post up pictures / teaser videos of themselves and gain funding to release different types of adult videos. Have the different levels earn you different items ($5.00 = 5 photos, $50 = 1 minute video) etc, etc. Basically so people could set a limit like "I am not willing to take my close off and finger fuck myself unless I reach my goal of $5,000).

To any lurkers, if you take this idea just give me a 2% royalty. That's all I ask.

XHonusWagnerX - 7-19-2012 at 06:33 PM

Im in for the Thorp Warriors song!

clevohardcore - 7-19-2012 at 10:04 PM

For the record. I have no idea where this thread went. This is all way over my head.

Mark Lind - 7-21-2012 at 11:39 AM

These are sold out. Did one of you guys get in there? I need to know if I need to start thinking up a message board song.

Sonofabitch! Nope. I didn't think that would go so quick and was still trying to figure out how to pool the money.

^ HA!

mark, let us know if you increase the number of this package or do something similar - i'll make the contribution immediately.

XnMeX - 7-26-2012 at 12:56 PM

I see the number boosted from 20 to 21 packages and is sold out... Was that one of us?

BDx13 - 8-11-2012 at 10:24 PM

all right you cunts, the boys bumped the number of custom song packages and i grabbed one.

make sure this kickstarter gets funded and start kicking around song ideas.

I was increasing them by request but since I got a few requests I just increased it to +10. If I have until March to deliver them then I can do it. It will be a fun exercise too.

XHonusWagnerX - 8-12-2012 at 09:58 AM

Only if another $1080 gets pledged in the next three days so that the project gets funded.

hey BD,

several of us owe you money. tell use the paypal account and final bill for the contributors.

so, is the song title officially, "Suck it. I'm drinking bourbon!"? cause that's a pretty fucking sweet song title.

shouldnt be much per person.....

random - 9-3-2012 at 06:06 PM

i counted 15 on the first page, so $10 or less it seems.

dave, not sure what is confusing aside from my slightly drunken misspelling. BD bought a song for $150 under the condition the project gets funded; project got funded; BD now owes $150 and several of us own him our share (and lind owes us a song by next march).

SONG THEMES

everyone who's kicking in on this little project...
what do you think the song should be about?
what ideas should we try to hit upon?
what thorp/sgr board memories do you want to reference?

defintily should mention 'Thorp Warriors', probably should reference 'Spinkicks are for assholes'. How about the fallen warriors?

fallen warriors


This one is needed! It could actually be completely serious if we wanted to go that route, but if not...

Maybe reference the most popular thread such as Hottest Spice girls and Cameltoe. All the great stuff! ;)

clevohardcore - 9-11-2012 at 01:15 PM

I'll paypal today.

clevohardcore - 9-11-2012 at 01:21 PM

1. Well how long has THORP been a community like we think of it? I've been around since 2004. How about hitting on the fact that this is real and not some fly by night BS.
2. the fallen ones
3. maybe some struggles we have all vented about.
4. I really think a shout outs to names or locations is a must.
5. Maybe reference some legendary threads, little corny but maybe people would get it.


Those are my ideas, but it's up to the professionals though to do there thing.

panzerkreuzer - 9-11-2012 at 02:09 PM

money is sent. thorp warriors worldwide!

SS76 - 9-11-2012 at 02:42 PM

those of you that sent money...did it work? cause that's the wrong fucking email address. in fact, i doubt there's anyone at paypal with the address bigduane.

anyway, cancel that shit and use bigduane *at-sign* sailorsgraverecords.com.

Mark Lind - 12-15-2012 at 02:02 PM

Ok, guys. I started working on this today. Since most of you guys like punk and hardcore I want to go in an opposite direction and give you guys a melancholy acoustic song. I find that things are best when ideas are simply implied in songs. I mean.... if you want me to reference the site I can but I think that would be somewhat hamfisted. Let me give you an example. In one of the new Ducky Boys songs we recorded I sing a line that says "so much has changed before the tunnel of my eyes." It implies that I have tunnel vision and only see things my way and everything is colored by my own perspective but I don't come right out and say it when you can just imply it using a well placed word.

What I'm cooking up right now is about drinking alone. What you guys do when you drink alone is your business but I've been reading this site long enough to know that most of you post here when you do that. :)

So give me some feedback and let me know if you're cool with the direction I'm heading with it. I can table this idea and basically write a Thorp Board jingle but it might be the type of thing you'll never want to hear a second time.

Dennis Mc - 12-15-2012 at 03:40 PM

I like it. Since I moved away from friends and a familiar life I find myself on a friday night knocking back a few and reminiscing about the past. My soundtrack is usually the Bruce Springsteen Live 1975-1985 boxset.

MattyA - 12-15-2012 at 06:22 PM

Since the majority of us use this as our local bar yeah thats cool becasue in a sense we all drink alone even when sitting with our lonely brothers in arms thousands of miles away

BDx13 - 12-16-2012 at 02:36 PM

you're the one with with the songwriting talent and since you know this group as well as you do, i'm sure you'll come up with something meaningful and enjoyable. can't wait to hear what you come up with.
