You should let her know that it's sold out. They may have some stored away. I only have the "No Moleste" shirt. But I want a Good One shirt now. Look, links!

For $25 or $50 you'd rather have a DVD with the short than a signed sticker/poster. 1 members found this post helpful.

Parts of me would have thought if people were a fan, they'd want to see the movie made and would kick down something. It wouldn't even have to be 25 or over if a good portion of her facebook fans pledged 5 to 10 bucks. The goal could be reached. But, I agree about the packages. I'm sure her fans already own a good portion of the rewards, if not all.

Almost reached 50 percent of the goal at least. Cool. Until this thing is over, I can't let this thread die. *Even though Craig is not in the film* But still.... Look, links!

Anyone who donates, or has already donated, $50 or more will now receive a signed DVD of Clown Service. This will be shipped to you after the film is submitted to festivals.

I didn't want to start a thread on this (apparently I can't anyway), so I'll use a Tig topic thread to mention. Last night at Largo, Tig did a set where she discussed going through a lot of personal trials. Then, she announced that she has cancer. Please read this person's account of her set over on Tumblr. http://flamelikeme.tumblr.com/post/2...-dont-have-the Godspeed, Tig. Stay strong. 1 members found this post helpful.

I look forward to watching all of the amazing things she does in the future. And, also -- FUCK CANCER IN THE FUCKING FACE. Seriously. 3 members found this post helpful.
