Forgot to mention.

I’m officially running my online store myself again. What is called the “fulfillment” process of online orders was recently ceased by the place that formerly ran my online store, and when I attempted to open a new store at one of the bigger online store areas (I’ll be kind and leave the site nameless) and they didn’t call me back like they said they would, I decided, screw it, I’ll run my store myself, like the good ol’ days!

So, from here on out there will be an extra bit of love put into each and every order placed at the Backseat Goodbye Online Store. My store ‘team’ and I will be adding little extras and personally written thank you notes with every single order made.

Feels good to be back at this again. When I first started BG, the first 3 years I ran my store myself, and it was unorganized as hell, shipping was terribly slow because I had to do everything myself (print labels, pack packages, ship packages)… But now, here in the future, everything is organized in a championship manner, I actually have helping hands, and is going awesomely!

For those who don’t know, my online store can be found @ store.backseatgoodbye.com

P.S. - For the folks whom have placed orders in the last week, the delay has been due to the switching over of the store. My awesome store team-member/badass, Lauren, got the “stock room” (aka - our closet) fully setup with all the merch yesterday. Your orders are being shipped today and will be given an even extra amount of extra love thrown in for absolutely free :)

brandoncarte asked: What ever happened to Swingset Acrobat? In 2008 you said "In 2009 I will be releasing the debut full-length Swingset Acrobat album.--I've already got about 7 demos ready for the full-length". Here we are halfway through 2010... consider the project dead?

The project’s not dead, it’s just greatly delayed. I have no clue when, but eventually something real will get released for Swingset Acrobat.

My Kickstarter project to release my album only has 4 (pretty much 3 now) days left to reach the goal. I absolutely hate asking for help, but this is one time I can’t help it. If you can spare anything, every little bit helps. And for those who don’t know, you get rewards for pledging money if the project is successful. You can help out or learn more @ http://kck.st/a0avRM. Thanks,Chad
