Ah, thank you! I also sang the League of Legends solo on Level 4. ^^ I'm SO sorry you missed the Sands show. I'm sure we'll be back in the area sometime, though!

It's already available on Bandcamp, in both digital and physical formats! ^^ http://jillianaversa.bandcamp.com/album/atlantis-awakening

You're right on! Submitted the remix to OCR... hopefully it'll be posted! Thank you all for your feedback! I am so, so, so happy & relieved to finally have this CD out. It was a true labor of love. DarkeSword: Yes, it will be on OverClocked Records!

Beautiful baby ! So happy for you, Dave & Anna!

Hey guys! Sorry I didn't show up here sooner; Andy forgot to tell me he started a thread, hehe... Thank you so much for the support! We just hit $9,000 today (over nine thouusaaaand) - I can't believe how great the response has been so far. <(^o^)> To answer your question, Jay (hi!): I wrote/spoke about this on my Kickstarter page, but basically I've had very frequent dreams of tsunami since a young age. I don't know why my subconscious keeps going back to this imagery, but it felt like time to find out its significance in my life. The legend of Atlantis was a perfect fit because Plato wrote that the civilization was "swallowed by the sea in a single day and night." The tsunami and all the mysteries surrounding it serve as an extended metaphor for my own personal search for truth. And as an added benefit, the story lends itself well to New Age/World music because earthy and watery imagery can be conjured through choices in instrumentation and composition.

Hey guys! Larry, maybe you can add this info to your post: I got in touch with the box office to see if we could arrange for a group discount, and they have reserved a block of 30 seats for us at the cheapest price point, in the first 5 rows of the balcony section. It would normally be $38/ticket, but they're giving us a 20% discount *and* waiving the $4 processing fee, so it's now ***$30/ticket*** (saving everyone $12)! If you'd like to get in on the group rate & seating, please post here or on my Facebook note. I need to give them our final number by next Thursday, June 28th, when I will be making one large payment for the whole group. Andy and I will have to collect $30 from each of you in person that weekend -- or you can mail us your payment in advance. If you miss the deadline, you can probably still score tickets to the concert, just not as part of the group. Anyway, it should be fun times! Hope you can make it!

Hahahaha, I was laughing so hard during that scene...

Huzzah! T-minus 27 days to release!

Yeah, hey... If we're talking about limited edition things, can't we at least print a small-ish number of girly tees? ;_;

I said this in staff chat, but I'll throw this out there publicly as well: The university design isn't my favorite, because even though it's tongue-in-cheek, most people wouldn't know that. I don't think it serves a practical purpose... Instead of spreading the word about OCR and what we do, it just winds up feeling like an in-joke. I'd rather wear something that actually promotes the community and feels 'inviting' to outsiders. Why would we want people to mistake OCR for some preppy college? Anywho, another thought I wanted to throw out there... Maybe it would be cool to have a version with the original OCR logo on the front, and the instruments on the back? ^-^

I love the instruments one... BUT WE NEED BABYDOLLS!

YESSSSSS! And now he's a good friend of mine, tooooo! We were at the Tokyo Game Show and SoulCalibur V recording together in Sydney. XD

Haha, Brandon! Andy and I actually know Matt Campana! He went to Drexel and is a friend of ours. I was really impressed with his submission, too. ^-^
