Get Busy Committee Platinum Plaque

Tuesday night we put together a very special 12″ offer and made it available to our fans first. Hopefully, with the help of our fans, we’re pressing a very limited edition, numbered, picture disc. When you pledge $1 or more for our project at Kickstarter.com you help us get closer to the pressing. Without your support in helping us reach $3,218.28 (the cost of the pressing at Erika Records), though, these records won’t exist. So come on over and pledge your support now, and get yourself a numbered copy of the album in return.

But not only are we selling the album, one lucky buyer will be immortalized ON THE ALBUM in a song by Get Busy Committee made especially for and ABOUT them. They’ll also receive copies numbered 1 and 2 of the 12″, with #1 in a PLATINUM-STYLE PLAQUE, framed and suitable for wall-hanging.

Others will receive one of the first 100 pressed plus a phone call from Get Busy Committee where you can ask them whatever you want about where the fuck Reseda Beach is, what happened to Apathy’s Atlantic record, what it’s like growing up Kid Frost Junior, where Busta Rhymes gets a midnight snack, or which member of Linkin Park likes to get their swerve on. Or if you’re a little more strapped for cash you could just get a copy of the 12″, or even just the digital version of the EP which will contain THREE unreleased Get Busy Committee songs.

The only place we publicized it was to our mailing list in hopes that those who have been with the band from the beginning would have first crack at the special premiums and it’s a good thing we did — a user by the name of Damon Black picked up the $1000 package in LESS THAN 24 HOURS. WOW. Damon, we are stunned, honored, and humbled and in the words of Apathy, “He is the shit!” Please get in touch with us so Get Busy Committee can start crafting a masterpiece in your honor.

Everyone else, please come through and pick up one of the other copies of the 12″. Unless we reach our goal of $3,218.18 we get $0. We need your help in getting there.

THANKS!

The single will feature “I Don’t Care About You” b/w “Say Whaaat?” from Uzi Does It. Stream or download “Say Whaaat?” below and feel free to take these widgets and stick them on your site, MySpace page, Facebook page, whatever.
