Well, it's happened! R. DILL RECORDS (formerly and sometimes still occasionally known as just plain DILL RECORDS) has just launched a Kickstarter Project. If you don't know what Kickstarter is, you can check out the link below. Basically, it's a funding platform for creative projects, one often used these days by established artists as well as aspiring ones. My father and I have launched a project that we hope will allow us to make desperately needed renovations to the studio, such as soundproofing the walls and floor, expanding the 38 x 40 space, and adding some equipment to replace things that were destroyed when the driver of a pick up truck crashed through one wall of the studio and nearly killed my Dad. Anyway...
The thing about Kickstarter is that it is all or nothing. We set our goal at the tidy, round sum of $10,000. If we get that much pledged to us by May 8, we can keep it. If we get even a dollar less, we get nothing, but walk away owing nothing. We really, really worked hard on the premise and I had to be the one in the video because my father was too shy. So, yeah...it fell to me. I can't say I am pleased with what I look like (I just don't look good in digital), but I did it, and I made the case, and now it's in God's hands...and the hands of the people who will decide whether or not to pledge to the project. Bottom line, we hope that you will check out the project even if you are not going to pledge because we would love to hear your feedback. Making R. Dill Studios a viable, competitive, cutting edge Christian/Gospel recording studio is my father's dream. At 80, he looks and acts 60. And he still believes in dreams. That is soooo cool. Please take a look! Love as always...
