There were pre-orders?

Not officially... it just went on sale slightly (hours) before the actual release date.

I was referring to the donations made during the Route 66 tour. The links were posted on the myspace and the website, too, I believe. For $50 you got a CD and your name in the liner notes, if memory serves. For $100, I think you got the DVD as well, along with your name in the credits. Something like that, anyway. That's what I'm wondering about.

Oh I'm sorry - I gotcha.

Linda would have to answer any questions about that.

Yeah, I thought that was all simply a donation, but not a pre-order. Maybe I was wrong about that though. (the smilies there because my daughter said we should add one!)

Those were donations, not preorders. For $50 you got your name in the CD and DVD liner notes and a free Route 66 t-shirt. For $25 you got your name in the CD and DVD liner notes. For $10 you got your name in the CD liner notes. There was no specified donation for $100 unless someone wanted to donate that amount, and we would certainly not turn it down!

Hope that helps clarify....

Well, I wasn't sure about the $100 thing. I guess I remembered it differently. Sorry. I just haven't heard about it since then.

So, how successful was it? What kind of response did you get?

I haven't gotten a tracking e-mail. What address is it from? I may need to get my ISP to unblock it.

I got the tracking e-mail. It's from "at" - uspsshippingapis.com. If I'd known the CDs weren't shipping until this week, I would've waited to ask about it.

Looking forward to getting it!

Oops - I'm sorry, I didn't see your question about the tracking email. I need to add the info on that address to the store so folks can be sure its unblocked.

The Dogs CDs arrived a few days after they were supposed to.. so once they got here we had a pretty large number of orders waiting. Because of that, it took a few days to get ahead of that backlog and steady flow. Everythings good now though.
