So, I couldn't imagine starting a Kickstarter page and getting as much as Amanda Palmer did. I would hate to be the one that has to organize the
13,783 packages that have to be sent out...........................(but I am sure she can afford to pay someone to do it now!!)
Amanda Palmer was half of the cabaret/punk duo Dresden Dolls. She's married to Neil Gaiman, and performs with her own band now. She also does some
performance art, and could probably drink you all under the table if she wanted to.
So.....A RICH WRITER's (NEIL FREAKING GAIMAN - A MAN WHO HAS MY LOVE AND RESPECT MIND YOU) PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN WIFE HAD TO DO A KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN
TO MAKE A RECORD/BOOK AND SOME DOUCHEBAGS COMPLAIN WHEN BANDS WHO ARE POOR, UNSIGNED and 100% INDIE AND SINCERE HAVE TO DO IT AND RAISE A FRACTION OF
WHAT THIS WOMAN RAISED??????????????
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?????????????????
Also - she must have some awesome fans with fat wallets huh?
You must not have heard about the unrelenting hypocrisy that blankets every square inch of the hardcore scene?
Everything is BS until their friends/they do it, then it's crucial. This is the unwavering rule of hardcore.
Nothing to do with this lady who I'm sure is really good at "something"...but I know what Mikes talking about in regards to the B9's conditonal love
of kickstarter.
