So this is one of many big announcements we have coming within the next few weeks. Fugue will be touring the west coast this coming January with Garrett's other band Canyons. We have been working very hard booking the tour, and we are very excited to announce everything in full soon. Consider this a soft tour announcement, since we are bringing your attention to a specific aspect of the tour.
Simply put: we're pretty much broke. Between recording, fixing equipment, sharing the funding of our new release with Mike of Mountain Man Records, and everything between in our personal lives, we are not able to pay for everything on this tour ourselves. Even between two bands, this is still a hard task for us to pull off. It is definitely going to happen no matter what, but we looking to you for some help. We know this is hard times and money's scarce for everyone; us three in Fugue and the others in Canyons are right there with you. This is a unique opportunity for us, however, and we want you the friends, family, fans, and appreciators to feel a part of this tour. We are running an IndieGoGo campaign from today, November 19th, till Wednesday, December 11th. We have set a goal of $650, and whatever money we receive will go to 1. the van rental cost, and 2. gas. We are not asking for a high amount because we are in the DIY spirit and are striving to make things happen ourselves, but any contribution will help greatly. Seriously. Even a dollar or two will help. In return, we will be giving back things we're making for the tour (shirts, pins, etc) and a kind-of preorder for our new 7 inch "Solitude/Traffic". The people in Canyons and the three of us want to make this worthwhile for you, and want to give as much gratitude as we can. We know some may think this is lame or we're just trying to get people's money. Think whatever you want, but it's just the truth that all touring is expensive. We aren't trying to abuse or take advantage of anyone; we are just admitting we can't do this all on our own and are willing to ask for a little bit of help.
So visit the indiegogo campaign: HERE HERE HERE, watch the video (that was pretty fun to make), and please donate if you can. We will be announcing more about the tour, our 7 inch, and other great news in the coming weeks. Thanks for reading this rambling, and thank you for caring.
