Last Day of Wing Commander Album Campaign (May 21, 2014)

Today is the last day of the supplemental Wing Commander Music Album Campaign! Daily visitors might think that we've already reminded everyone we could possibly reach, but we continue to find new fans with each posting. George has clarified that there are currently no plans to sell the album commercially, so today may be the last day ever to order the disc. These will be marked as special collector's copies for the Wingnuts who helped make this possible. $20 gets you the digital album and $60 secures a copy on CD here!

Final Hours! I want to truly thank all those who have donated to this amazing project! Between the initial Kickstarter and this supplemental campaign we've raised enough for at least 30 minutes of orchestral music to be recorded in Prague as well as more than an additional 15 minutes of digitally sampled new arrangements of Wing Commander music!

One point I want all of you to know is that it's likely I will not make this product commercially available after these recordings are done. These historic recordings will belong only to those that have helped to raise the funds to make it all possible in the form of the many rewards that are available. After this campaign is over it is most likely that they will not again be available. If however I do decide to make it commercially available someday any new CDs will NOT be the same product. This initial production will forever be a SPECIAL EDITION tribute to all that have helped make this all possible, and will be labeled as such!

So if you know anyone who would like to be a part of this historic event please spread the word. I'm already busy orchestrating the music, and can't wait to hear it played by world class musicians!

My most heartfelt thanks to all of you!

George

Too bad this one won't reach the amount needed for full 45 minutes :-(
 
Yeah, it's a bummer, but I guess the limitation we probably ran into is that we reached the vast majority of serious Wingnuts in the Kickstarter. Ultimately George is going to try to squeeze every minute out of the recording session that he can, so we'll see what the final total ends up being. On the positive side, this allowed another hundred or so fans to get a copy of the album who otherwise wouldn't have.
