Amanda Palmer Passes $1 Million On Kickstarter [NSFW]
David Meerman Scott: Amanda Palmer freaks out to celebrate hitting $1 million on Kickstarter:
Tens of thousands of Amanda's fans backed her new album before they even heard it. That's the power of a fan base and using social media to connect with fans.
One way to do an album is to have a record label fund it. As Amanda shows, there’s a better way: Have your fans fund it and then you retain control.
When I was a DJ at WZBC I used to play songs from The Dresden Dolls all the time, especially Coin Operated Boy.
